Review #499. 2009 Vintage. Enjoyed in a snifter at cellar temp (60 Degrees F).\u00a0<\/p>\n

A – Nice carbonation psst as I open the bottle which is always a great sign. No head formed. Poured a viscous pitch black into the glass. Midnight black with some motor oil sort of texture. Nice alcohol legs on the swirl.\u00a0<\/p>\n

S – I can smell the bourbon from 2 feet away which is always a great sign. Big burning bourbon scent up close. Hints of vanilla and campfire. Some roasted malts\u00a0<\/p>\n

T – More licorice than the 2011 and 2010 I sampled. Lots of up front licorice. Hint of cardboard taste. The bourbon takes over and coats the tongue with charred oak, vanilla and the finish is all raisins and caramel. On a second sip, I get this hint of pure cane syrup like molasses that my family makes back home.\u00a0<\/p>\n

M – 25% carbonation. heavy body. Boozy burn on the back of the throat and to the chest. The oaky bourbon taste with vanilla sticks around for a while.\u00a0<\/p>\n

O – I\u2019ve had vintages \u201907 and 09-11. Each of them are very delicious. This is a delectable beer that I would enjoy more often if only it was more readily available. The licorice in this bottle was more pronounced than any other vintage I\u2019ve had and yes, it\u2019s a turn off. I\u2019m rating this one purely on all I\u2019ve had and thus will ignore this on this one bottle. This is an excellent well-balanced beer that is exceptional in every way.\u00a0<\/p><\/div>\n
