I can't believe Ryan found this very special edition 903 Brewery beer. Expensive and exclusively combined with a very rare Iron Root Whiskey barrel and finished on Amburana wood. A very, very limited edition of Texas whiskey. He always finds the best beers to share with me. This son-in-law knows how to bond, but I'm not taking my daughter back. Using my 903 glass on this. Sweet alcohol aroma, some molasses. This first taste is both confusing and disappointing. Ryan and I had to stop, retaste, and evaluate again,,,,and again,,,,and again. He paid $25 for this bottle. It has a rare barrel and a rare wood for aging. The flavor has very little malt, a flat whiskey, and a cherry Dr Pepper cole taste. A whiskey burn that seems more powerful than the 13.0% but it's not pleasing or adds to the overall experience. Travels into the finish sweet and unexceptional. There is little malt and no hops. Doesn't even taste like a beer. I have had more 903 Brewing beers than any other Brewery. A Texas Brewery that I loved, at first. I even have their glass. But if this $25 beer is the best they can do, if this is the Pinnacle of their brewing ability, I'm done. This is not a good beer. Perhaps their Master Brewer left or maybe it's just a grab for money but I don't care about ever having another from them. Very sad about this.
