12 ounce can into a goblet. Released 9/22/23, had 11/6/23.

Pours a medium amber color, semi opaque, with a half inch foamy head and sparse foamy lacing. Aromas of rye whiskey, caramel, figs, raisins, vanilla, some oak. The flavors are mostly the same: rye whiskey, vanilla, oak, caramel raisins, figs as it warms. Smooth, as very good medium body, well carbonated.

Best fully warmed. The Rye barrels are great, with very good supporting aromas and flavors. Great flavor. A little thinner feeling this year, but still very enjoyable.
