Draught (Little Pub, Vaasa). Reddish orange colour with a small off-white head. Aroma is cherries, some mild wood, alcohol as well as some mild maple. Flavour is cherries, syrup, some wood, alcohol and mild tart red berries as well. Good in the beginning, but before finishing the glass it already gets a bit too sticky.
Finally getting to try this. 2022 bottle from Livonia Liquor. Pours a clear, rusty reddish amber with a finger of off-white foam that lingers. Nice lacing down the glass. Aromas of bourbon, maple syrup and cherry cordial. As it warms, a nice comforting oaky, vanilla bourbon note drives the nose. More of the same on the palate. Cherry, vanilla, oak and bourbon linger on the finish. A lot of hate for this, but I think it's well executed. Maple and cherry play well with the bourbon barrel.
Bomber. Nose is cherry, bourbon, maple, vanilla. Hazy, ok-looking golden amber. Sweet flavor with nice cherry and bourbon and rather enjoyable.
355ml bottle. Pours orange brown. Cherry, bourbon, sugar, syrup, synthetic cherry, touch of booze, orange, maple syrup. Oily body. Tasty.
355ml bottle from Drink Store, Dublin. At Niamey's craft beer tasting. No BB. Couleur cerise-ambre, col fin blanc. Arôme offre de belles effluves de cerise le tout accompagnées par un somptueux effet de Bourbon clairement bien marqué, le cerise revient en rétro avec un effet naturel, le tout sur l’érable qui confère des petites notes de sucré. Palais garde un bel effet de crise alternant entre le côté un peu fruité tannique-suret et la douceur plus marquée de Bourbon - douceur vanillée sur la fin. Le mélange fonctionne bien, l'érable contribue à un ajout organique sirupeux légèrement sucré.
Süß fruchtiger Beginn mit holzigen Noten. Süßholz, trocken, etwas Bourbon. Etwas Vanille im Hintergrund, feine Karbonisierung, Kirschen, langer Nachhall. Nicht ganz rund aber interessant und vielseitig. 9/9/10/9/9/9
Cherry dominates but in both Aroma and flavor Bourbon and hints of the maple show up to. Flavor has a slightly tart cast to it.
Bottle shared with Višnja 666 and Pilot Goran at a tasting session in the summer of 2017. Dark golden, small off-white head. Barrel and fruit, with some peat. Quite aggressive. Lots of barrel flavour here, but sweet and syrupy. Thick and sticky, medium body, moderately lasting syrupy finish. Very sweet ale.
Interesting. Not sure if it's really my thing, but fun for sure. Very sweet, some bourbon, lots of (synthetic) cherry. Very easy drinking.
