Barrel Aged Northwind

Stopped by the original brewery with Kaila after doing a hike nearby. Pours thick, black and rich. Nary the deep tan foam. No lacing. Aroma of bourbon, sweet brown sugar, oak char, and caramel. Taste has an “off” flavor up front that fights with egregious carbonation. I can’t place it. The middle mellows with brown sugar, caramel and light bourbon. There is some oak char late. Big body with too much carbonation. I was anticipating this when I saw it on the menu. The taste really let this beer down. That flavor also started to make its way into to the aroma as well. I would not have this again. Enjoy!
