Poured into a goblet a pretty nice dark brown/black color, with some nice carbonation, with a pretty quick/fizzy tan head, which leaves a nice oil slick, which also leaves some minimal sticky lacing behind. The nose is pretty nice, malty, hoppy, with a pretty nice touch of chocolate/toffee, very nice bourbon/oak note, vanilla, with some licorice, definitely can smell the alcohol (ABV). The taste is very nice, malty, hoppy, with a pretty nice touch of chocolate/toffee, pretty nice bourbon/oak note, very nice vanilla sweetness, licorice. Full Body, ABV is hidden pretty nicely, a very tasty complex brew, a very nice big sipper. Overall, this is a pretty tasty brew. Definitely nice to see this one around. Might buy another bottle. Got to be one of the highest ABV beers to date for me.

500ml bottle, barrel-aged whiskey sour, barrel 606, filled 1/27/21. Pours slightly hazy amber with a small white head that quickly goes to a light dusting that leaves little lacing.

The aroma is green apple, caramel malts, and bourbon.

The flavor is sweet tart apples with caramel malt and a boozy bourbon finish. The mouthfeel is a bit thin and watery with low carbonation.

Overall, interesting but way too sweet and boozy for me.
