The session ale of barrel-aging! (Do NOT session) Red ale, six weeks of the bat. Light caramel and banana, chocolate muffin, vanilla cookie, light coffee, vanilla slipping into cream soda. The palate is relatively round with the expected creaminess, vanilla, and such a whisper of oak that keeps on whispering. It’s saying: hand me that damn graham cracker. Soft, creamy, and overall pleasant in every respect. It won’t put hair on your chest, but it might put a little peach fuzz on your upper lip.

By far, one of the best beers that have ever crossed my liver. On draught. Oh. My. Goodness. Tasted Apr 2015. Lexington Brewing & Distilling Co.

Way sweet and maybe too much bourbon-y but tasty nonetheless.

Creamy and smooth. A nice alternative when you don’t want a heavier bourbon aged stout.

Cheeky wee beer - packs a punch and delicious on draft.

Sweet bourbon taste with a rich creamy mouthfeel. No carbonation or head. Very good indeed.
