12 ounce can into a snifter. Canned 11/30/18, had 6/8/19. Also had on tap.
Pours a cloudy dark amber, with a half inch foamy head and some slick, foamy lacing. Aromas of rye whiskey, malt, caramel, oak, butterscotch, toffee, vanilla, kind of an aroma of oats. Flavors of rye whiskey, caramel, butterscotch, vanilla, malt, oak, light sea salt. Smooth, a solid medium body, a little creamy, well carbonated.
So much caramel and butterscotch, the flavor is kind of extraordinary. The vanilla shows well and the Quincy St and Buffalo Trace barrels are impressive, but don’t dominate. So enjoyable.
