4 of 5

After a month in the bottle this is tasing really nice. Nice Carmel head slight nose of coffee and bourbon, almost like an Irish coffee. Mouth feel is a bit thiner then expected and is the main reason I'm holding this at a good rating. The mouthfeel does not detract from a nice rich flavor or coffee, chocolate and a tint of bourbon and this beer feels bigger then the ~7% it comes in after the bourbon addition.

I only added 200ml of the bourbon. Definitely could take this up to 300ml to enhance the bourbon nose and flavor
