Oregon Trail Bourbon Porter
Oregon Trail Bourbon Porter 22oz:
This brown porter has a nice up front fruit hop tone that will move into a chocolate / caramel maltiness and finish with strong but not over powering bourbon flavor. Now as this beer warms up the fruity character takes a back seat and the roasty and chocolate tones come forward and that wonderful bourbon finish is still there. Not as inky and thick as the Fullsail Black Gold which is not a bad thing. This is a beer you can finish by yourself (unlike the Black Gold).
