Esther Price’s long-time dream of opening a chocolate shop is celebrated once again. Warped Wing Brewing Company together with Esther Price Candies and Boston Stoker Coffee introduce to you Esther’s Li’l Secret Caramel Pecan Scotch Ale. Brewed with Highlander Grogg Coffee and carefully aged in bourbon barrels. A fantastical wonderland filled with rich flavors of chocolate, caramel, butterscotch, and a kiss of vanilla. All wrapped up in a tidy little bourbon barrel aged bow. Dream big. Drink bigger.

12.7 ounce bottle, no dating on the label but this was purchased at the brewery release party on 11/3. Drank some of this there that day, giving it a proper review now. Served in an Esther's Li'l Secret chalice, the beer pours a dark reddish/copper/brown color with about an inch tan head. Head retention and lacing are both good. Aroma is nice, the brew smells like caramel, pecan, vanilla, bourbon, and butterscotch. Taste is similar to the aroma, but with the addition of some peaty smoke, coffee and roasty flavors. The barrel aging is a nice touch to the base beer, gives it a nice extra kick. Mouthfeel/body is medium, it's a bit coating and has a moderate amount of carbonation. As with the base version, I liked the draft version more. But the bottled one is still pretty good, worth trying if you get the chance!
