Very dense in body, almost a barley wine. Slightly sweet but still a very good bitterness in the finish. Again, hard to categorize but very good overall.

whoa. BIG boozy nose and packs a punch. Loved this beer.
Color, aroma, taste, mouthfeel - all top notch. I hope this is done more than once a year.

Poured into a pint glass. Thanks for sharing, Roy.
A: Iced tea orange, muddy brown. A half finger head with minimal lacing.
S: Bourbon heavy with a molasses backbeat.
T: Heavy chocolate opens the round with a solid bourbon finish. Sweet, robust. Like drinking a bourbon and Coke. So different from the regular Copperhead.
M: medium with medium carbonation.
O: This one came out of the blue and fans fell in love with the taste. Yalobusha scores again. Bourbon barrel aging brings this Copperhead to life.
