Rahr and Sons Bourbon Barrel Aged Winter Warmer

And from out of nowhere...it's winter here in Austin again.  Temperatures hung around the 30's all day, gray clouds, mist and cold, light rain.  It's the perfect weather for a strong libation.  Enter the Bourbon Barrel Aged Winter Warmer, an English dark ale from Fort Worth's Rahr and Sons Brewing Company.  This 9% ABV creation pours a dark, pitch black with a frothy, tan head.  The beer looks thick, and it packs a punch.  The bourbon is very prevalent in both the aroma and the flavor.  Add in some light touches of vanilla, chocolate, oak, malt, and some subtle spiciness, and you've got yourself the perfect beer to warm you up on a cold day or night.  But drink slowly.  You'll want another one as soon as your finished.
