The Big Friendly Year Three

What the brewers say

“Aged in double-oaked Woodford Reserve bourbon barrels.”

What our panel thought

“Roast, dark chocolate, coffee, caramel, coconut blend with a decided sherry/sweet vermouth character in the nose. Burnt caramel and marshmallow in the flavor.”

What our editors thought

“Strong almond notes play against charred oak in the nose, offering the allure of sweetness without excessive sugar. Spicy and urgent in the sip, younger, with woody and nutty tones that feel luxurious but not staid.”
