16 ounce can into a tulip snifter. Had 5/2/25.
Pours a darker ruby amber color, semi opaque, with a quarter inch foamy head and light foamy lacing. Aromas of bourbon, caramel, malt, raisin, oak, some fig. Flavors of bourbon, caramel, malt, oak, raisin, some fig, light vanilla. Has a light sweet note. Smooth, a very good medium body, well carbonated.
Strong and tasty barrels with a solid and expressive base. Big notes of caramel, raisin and oak. Maybe a little sweet. Really enjoyable. Have had a handful of beers from these guys and they are consistently very good.

Sweet toffee and Werther's Original candies, bran cereal flakes, raisins and figs, and a balanced bourbon barrel boozy nose on this one! Taste follows with a smooth, caramel and brown sugar, dark fruity, bourbon barrel finish. This is well done! Kros Strain is on the radar now!
