Who's been drinking this

A smooth yummy beer. Assertive aromatic wood smell. Sweet start, coconut cocoa finish.
Bottle
Moderate bourbon/chocolate smell. The cocoa taste might start to add up in larger volume but as a taster the peppery cocoa was balanced with a bourbon body.
Strong and bourbon-sweet. In fact, this basically tasted like bourbon, on the cherry side, and maybe not so much beer. But I like bourbon.
