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!

Just as good in the bottle - bubbly old fashioned with orange oil

Really good old ale type barrel aged beer. Not too much of any one aspect.

Nice smell but a bit of an overly sweet taste

I’m an old fashion and Old Fashioned guy, so, this beer is in my wheelhouse. I get the cherry; I get the orange; and I get the booze. So, why not have an Old Fashioned, you ask? I respond, Why not have both? Life is good. Have a (high) ball!

As if an old fashioned and a beer had a baby. Really delicious with cherry and orange, a little vanilla followed by light bourbon on the finish. Thanks Michelle and Greg!

At first sip, you wonder what this beer is that has the orange, cherry, and dark flavors. The you remember that it is inspired by an Old Fashioned. You take another sip…and realize it tastes exactly like an Old Fashioned.

Was expecting a bit more, but still solid. Very mild booze and even milder orange bitters or spice.

One of the most interesting tasting beers I have tried. It's a smoked burbon almost with a beer aftertaste, absolutely delicious and one of a kind

Very good beer. Mild on the orange bitters, doesn't feel like 11%. Definitely reminiscent of an old-fashioned. Liked it better than the previous barleywine

pretty accurate representation of an old fashioned, especially in the cherry nose. Not bad!

Lots of orange peel and bourbon too. Not as much cherry as I expected. Nonetheless, another delicious bourbon barrel aged one. Bitterness from the peel gives way to smooth and sweet bourbon
