Pours cloudy reddish brown. Thin, foamy, White short-lived head
Taste caramel malt, Oaky vanilla, bourbon, hints of dark fruit.
Taste caramel malt, light dark fruit fading to a vanilla Oak finish semi-sweet lingering Bourbon and vanilla. Full body with smooth, creamy, lower medium carbonation.

Wow. Upper Hand did a great job with this one! It's exactly what I'd look for in a beer (when I'm not driving, that is!) It's heavy, dark and delicious!
I had this beer in the taproom, served in a 12 oz mug. It's high gravity, and served appropriately. The beer is a cloudy dark reddish-brown, and has a tan head, which quickly fades. The malts and oak really stand out in this beer, and it has a slightly sweet finish. Outstanding!
