I guess the flavors of beer and bourbon were not intended to be mixed. Didn't like this one.







Pours as a copper ale. Weak head, no lacing. First taste is sweet alcohol, even though the ABV is only 8.2%. Further flavor profile follows a typical copper or red ale. Nothing distinguishes the ale from other, less expensive ales. There is surprisingly very little flavoring from the oak (or Bourbon); very little hint of vanillins and no obvious oaky tannins.
I was expecting more.







Absolutely fantastic. Not overly bourbon-y. Could drink it all day long. Amazing flavor.
