Im sampling a cellar temp 500 ml bottle poured into my snifter. No ABV on the label....
The beer pours lighter than expected from the bottle, almost golden in color but rests in the glass a chestnut to copper color that is a little murky.
Minimal frothy beige head foams up less than .5 cm and settles to a thin edge layer that clings onto the sides of my glass.
Aroma is pretty heavy with bourbon and brown sugar mixing with some toffee notes and a bit of a fig note too. Also definitely some general booze scents telling me the ABV is probably higher on this beer. No hop character and the nose is appealing in my opinion, pretty much what I would want in a BBA barleywine. Rich, sweetish, and malty.
First sip reveals a medium bodied beer with spacious and fine carbonation, very sticky mouthfeel and leaves residue on my lips after each sip. Also definitely some warmth on my palate and on the swallow each mouthful. I wonder what the ABV is on this one? its not hidden, that is for sure.
Flavor is sweet malt and bourbon. I get toffee and some vanilla mixing with brown sugar and a bit of port wine/red grape thing here. Then bourbon takes over followed by some boozy heat. This beer doesnt hide its kick, wow!
no hops to be found, were there any? I dont care, the beer is enjoyable and sweet malt dominant, but definitely a sipper and hot. Probably could age this a year or 3 and come back for some mellowing. But I only had this one bottle.
Worth a shot if you like bourbon and boozy and sipping a beer for a while.

Dark amber brown color with no carbonation and no lacing. Aroma has some mineral presence along with some booziness and toasted caramel. Sweet caramel malt base that quickly becomes overwhelmed by bourbon and alcohol that comes off as slightly medicinal. Body is thick and silky with warming in the back of the throat. Some carbonation would be nice with this one and the aroma is so-so, but the flavor makes up for the other two.
