From the brewer

Enormously rich but satisfying beer, Older Viscosity is 100% straight Bourbon barrel-aged for a minimum of 9 months, taking full advantage of our Oak Aging program, adding levels of complexity and depth. The beer starts off with a coating of rich malts and dark chocolate and finishes in a dry bittersweet ending balanced by a firm bitter tone and warming notes from the alcohol. Available in 375 ml cork finished bottles

Woodsy smooth bourbony with a butterscotch finish.

Molasses and bourbon recall Berserker, although the body is drier and thinner. Good flavor, with some wood astringency to close, although the finish is very clean, considering. Bitterness builds. Not in the tippy-top of its class, but still a rare treat.

Pours thick, black & strong, but very, very smooth. Bourbon, toffee and alcohol are all very balanced but the alcohol will get you at more than, say, 8oz at once. A sipper for sure. Tastes? Like a mellower Parabola - OMG. At $17 for a 375mL bottle, tho, a rare pleasure at best.
