and greatly enjoying it
this is really coming together. The flavors are getting more defined and the alcohol 'burn' is heading to the back of the flavor profile.
Nice dark fruit, vanilla and oak notes. There is a slightly 'slickness' left on the tongue when you are done and a mild alcohol burn. Very nice, though should be reserved for a night cap after a nice healthy portion of beef!
Thanks!

Hrmpfff. I still don't have mine bottled. Darn my busy schedule. I hope Sean has left a little bit in the keg that he's storing for me! Hopefully sometime in October between my various trips.

Had one last night Bill and i agree 100%. Expecially about the whiskey burn is slight at the end leaving behind all these wonderful flavors. Pretty soon, this will be one smooth, complex brute. It was all about the barrel this time.

1. When a once extraordinarily hoppy beer now seems pedestrian.
2. The phenomenon a person has when craving more bitterness in beer.
3. The long-term exposure to extremely hoppy beers; if excessive or prolonged, a habitual dependence on hops will occur.
4. When a "Double IPA" just is not enough
