On tap at Flanny's the other day.

The beer pours a copper amber color with pretty good head retention and lacing. On the nose, I pick up considerable vanilla and brown sugar, with maybe a hint of bourbon as well (the bourbon is not very prominent in this beer). The flavor profile replicates the nose pretty closely, though I thought the beer lacked a depth of flavor this would have made this a first class BW. Frankly, the flavor profile struck me as fairly simple and one dimensional, though perhaps in time (with short term age), this beer will improve. Right now, the sweetness and vanilla flavor really seem to dominate in this beer. Mouthfeel is medium bodied to full, with the alcohol fairly well integrated into the flavor profile. Drinkability is OK I guess, though the sweetness is a bit much (which makes the alcohol all that more prominent)

Shrug An OK, but really nothing special BW from the folks at Tombstone.
