Bottle Shop Series Highball Drifter

Brown Ale - American

They don't make 'em like they used to... or do they? The bottle shop series is a tribute to the folks who supported ragtag brewer's across the country when craft beer was in its infancy. when beer enthusiasts sought out innovation through big flavor, in your face complexity and revered quality above all else. This series is for you: the distinguished beer connoisseur still seeking the revolution that energized the industry we know today -- that settles for nothing less then the very best!

Really good high alcohol beer. Sweet and reminiscent of a classic cocktail but with a malty finish.

Wow sooo good, tastes a lot like an Old Fashioned - orange peel and earthy spice come in strong, then bourbon booziness and vanilla.

This is weird but yummy, very different. Like a barrel aged cocktail.

Really hitting nice. The use of bitter orange peel in place of aging in bitters barrels making it richer and sweet and IMO more drinkable.

Amazing brew! Light like a cocktail type drink you grab at the bar. Caramel riding on the tail of orange peel hints of vanilla and a lovely cinnamon bourbon

Wow! Far exceeds expectations. The chemistry of a bourbon backbone with some orange zest and hint of cherry is on point. The bourbon profile could be more developed, but at this accessible price point I have no complaints!

Heavy notes of caramel and oaky vanilla dance in the air over the glass. The palate introduces notes of burnished leather, molasses, and cherries. A smooth finish leaves behind vegetal notes like fresh oak.

Interesting plethora of flavors from a light spice to brown sugar, vanilla, hints of fruit, boozy! I like it! I hope the 11% ABV likes me! Carry on!

S tier aroma. Darn good taste. Captures the cocktail really well. Glad I grabbed this one. Cherry really brings the barrel, sweet malts and orange together. Boozy but reminiscent of a mixed drink.

Starts heavy vanilla and slight coconut familiar barrel tones and evolves to more orange citrus.

Very nice sipping beer. Bourbon was somewhat subtle and I got vanilla and orange flavors. The alcohol notes are strong but not as much as I'd expect for 11%
