About This Beer
The SoCal craft phenoms at Smog City started by brewing a classic Belgian Style Dubbel Ale with a bold and malty flavor profile. Then they aged it in bourbon barrels for a full 18 months alongside Michigan-grown tart cherries!
Tasting Notes
The fruit seems to accentuate the barrel notes, elevating flavors of whiskey caramel and oaky vanilla to heights usually only attainable by an expert mixologist. Nuances of orange zest materialize from the pour, completing the cocktail illusion. Your taste buds won’t know if they’re in a Belgian taproom or a classic speakeasy!

light and fruity, very cherry / fruit forward.

Orange and sugary, a good representation of the cocktail at a open bar where the bartender went light on the whiskey. Tasty none the less.

I love some Old Fashioneds. I've had several OF inspired beers and this is by far the best.

Nice take on an Old Fashion. A bit sweeter and w/ more cherry than my favorite version of this cocktail

Definitely inspired by an old fashioned, I would say it’s a little more cherry-forward than the actual drink, but still a good beer

Admittedly not for me, but very much as advertised: bourbon-forward, up against the sweetness and flavor of the cherry.

Wow! It took a few sips to understand the flavors…boozy like an old fashioned, orange and finishes with hints of cherry. Great sipper with friends!
