Neat. Neck pour. Gallenstein #11. I have 5 or 6 different barrels of these Old Scout 5 year picks. Each one is better than any other MGP I have had. Starting to see Remus single barrels in my area but they don’t compare to these Old Scouts. When I saw this bottle at one of my favorite stores today, I was excited despite having so many of these already. Hmm, very subtle on the nose. Nice lightly charred caramel. Freshly baked cinnamon roll. Some baked apple. Some deep clove and baking spices as I sit with it longer. There is a nice vanilla frosting too. Almost 120 proof, but you can’t tell from the nose. No young notes, which again is awesome for these young Old Scouts. Texture is actually light and fluffy, so strange. Vanilla sweetness up front transitions into a delicious caramel bomb. Those baking spices and pepper show up on the legs and the rye makes an appearance on the finish. Those cinnamon baked apples are coming through too. Another winner. Gosh. I’ll have to blind these soon to see which barrel I like most. This barrel is going to be up there. It is so smooth, so crisp. Not very complex I suppose but it really tastes good. Only $60 too. Glad I bought a back up.
