Style of Beer:
Single Malt Bourbon
Riverbend Malt(s) Used:
100% Bloody Butcher Corn Malt
Tasting Notes:
The nose is rich in sweetness with a hint of savoriness to boot – thick caramel sauce, spiced cola, with date and raisin fruitiness and a pinch of candied bacon jam.
The palate is incredibly viscous, toasty like their toasted Fiddlers from last year with heavy chocolate ganache, clinging dried fruits, and lots of charred citrus on the palate.
The finish is the best part, flat cola sweetness as more of the savoriness draws out along with long, toasted oak and continually developing petrichor.
