12 ounce can into a tulip snifter. Released 6/7/24, had 4/16/25.

Pours near black and opaque, with a half inch foamy head and light foamy lacing. Aromas of cinnamon, nutmeg, coconut, bourbon, malt, chocolate, oak, some coffee, a little vanilla. Flavors of bourbon- strong as it warms, oak, roasted malt, chocolate, coconut, cinnamon, some coffee, light nutmeg. Has some floral/herbal bitterness. Smooth, a solid full body, appropriately carbonated.

There’s a lot going on with this one. Strong bourbon barrels in the flavor, but the amburana barrels and the solid base temper them. The amburana is especially aromatic here, but doesn’t feel overdone. A really solid effort.
