12oz can served in a snifter glass. Canned on 11/26/24 09:19
Appearance: Cloudy dark coppery brown with a thin light tan head. Some lacing that slowly slid back down the glass.
Smell: Bourbon, vanilla, cinnamon.
Taste: Strong cinnamon note, and the vanilla comes through as well. Quite sweet. A hint of ginger at the finish. Not getting the orange peel, it's hidden under the bourbon/vanilla notes.
Mouthfeel: Good thickness, warming, light carbonation.
Overall / Drinkability: A powerfully flavored winter warmer, with such strong flavors that it's hard to pick out a beer under all of this. Tasty and warms you up though with the spices and alcohol, which is very well hidden under all the flavors.

25 IBU, single 12oz can from Jungle Jim's, canned 11/06/20 (7 weeks old)
Pours a ruby brown with little head.
Massive bourbon aroma. Taste follows the nose, boozy bourbon.
The bourbon definitely dominates and overpowers the other flavors.
