Innis & Gunn Bourbon Oak Aged Dark Ale

Beer #2 from the Innis & Gunn collection. This one isn't a stout, but a Scottish dark ale, sometimes called a Wee Heavy, aged on bourbon-infused oak staves. (Not quite bourbon barrel, but still up there). It pours a deep, dark ruby-brown with an almost-not-there head. The bourbon is the first thing that I noticed, with a more subtle oak aroma. Other flavors include vanilla & raisin and a bit of molasses. Very nice sippin' ale.
