Appearance: A mid-range amber color is what I perceive in this craft bourbon, as well as medium-sized oily legs begrudgingly making their way back down the glass. Nose: The nose starts off as yeasty bread and fermentation, like the inside of a brewery. Notes of wheat and dusty grain transition from there, followed by fruity strawberry Twizzler candy, red apple, cherry, floral honeysuckle, dandelion and arugula lettuce greens, as well as a maltiness, and an unfortunate astringent house cleaner note. Taste: The palate has a citrusy orange and grapefruit tang, followed by sweet notes of vanilla and caramel, then a bitter herbal note that sweetens into the finish. Finish: The long sweet honeyed finish is nice and really invites you into another sip. Thoughts: With this bourbon, I was overall quite impressed. It was unique yet familiar, as far as nosing and tasting. I would recommend it and wouldn’t mind getting it again. Thanks, Bear Creek! Cheers!

Super smooth and light , very approachable. Same proof as their other whiskies but I don't taste any burn at all. Light vanilla and wheat flavors. Good, but I'd pick up their wheat whiskey before this one.
Smells young, whats the age? Smells like a brewery. Under ripe bananas. Semi-spicy, but not hot. Light bodied, thin
Lighter body, with slight raisen among a more pronounced vanilla. Overall an enjoyable whiskey.
Nose: dark fruit and leather Palate: vanilla, eucalyptus mint Finish: chewing tree bark!
nose vanilla, caramel, light on the nose some caramel vanilla, peppery for a wheated
