What the brewers say

“Aged seven, eight, and eight months in a blend of bourbon barrels.”

What our panel thought

“Aroma-wise, a healthy dose of alcoholic heat punctuates caramel and cinnamon notes with hints of vanilla, toffee, milk chocolate, coconut. The flavor stays in the same lane. The booze is the star of the sip but deftly pulls everything together.”

What our editors thought

“Vivid nose with bits of licorice, Bit-O-Honey candy, caramel Granny Smith apple, bourbon oak, mid-percentage cacao chocolate, wet leather. The flavor is similarly layered and diverse, leathery with deep caramel notes and an herbal brightness.”
