COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Created around the proverbial campfire between Bent Paddle and Fitger’s Brewhouse. They managed to save a bourbon barrel’s worth and let it age for 6 months. The nose presents a playful wisp of smoke almost akin to an Islay peatiness. The caramel maltiness brings forth a stone fruit character with just a hint of rye malt to play off the Czech Saaz hops while notes of Bourbon and wood shine through.

Pour on tap at Northern Lights Rare Beer Fest, dark brownish red pour with off white head, aroma brought notes of dark cocoa, smoke, some caramel, toffee into a bit of red fruits, slight bourbon comes through. Taste was a mix of nice bourbon, oak, spicy notes into some smoke, toasted bread, some caramel, finishing spicy, dry.

March 28, 2015 - taster pour at the Rare Beer Fest in St. Paul. Light brown pour with limited head. Nice amount of light smoke and spice, wish there was more bourbon and wood flavor though.
