It's very bourbon barrel aged. Hard for me to drink. But I appreciate my friend for trying. :^)

Complex scent of floral and hops. Bitter and brackish taste.

Bottle seems a bit old, date is scratched off so can't confirm. Not very hoppy, a bit present (potentially this one's just old. Some roastiness/light chocolate flavors on the palate and a slightly bitter finish. I think I've had too many world-class beers by now to be "wowed" by this.

Someday, I'd like to be his friend. For now, he's a bit too bitter in the rear for me. OMG, did I just write that?
