Bourbon County Wheatwine 2019
What the brewers say
“Aged in... bourbon casks...for a flavor profile full of caramel, vanilla, butterscotch, and toffee.”
What our panel thought
“Alcohol. Raisin nut nose. Alcohol. Sweetness cut by alcohol. Some caramel, toffee, and vanilla. Lightly toasted coconut barrel character and alcohol.”
What our editors thought
“Light banana notes on the nose amplify brûléed sugar with a general weightlessness despite the booze-heavy nose. Rich, warming, slightly bitter in the finish (is that its American roots showing through?).”
