Had on tap. Murky dark with a faint cream colored collar. Bourbon and oak soaked in toffee, boozy cherry, and subtle earth in the nose. Taste has warmer booze, but thankfully just as it is about to become too much the cherry save the day, attempting to resurrect the toffee malts that were obliterated by the booze, oak is moderately present. Feel is warm verging on hot, full for style, but has good textures from the adjuncts and barrel. Fun idea!
