The gap in damage output between the Master of Many Styles and the vanilla Ton of flexibility, but it also means that you need to look for ways to close ![]() Match style feats in a way that literally no one else can do. Option (Flurry of Blows), but in exchange they get the ability to mix and Technically the feats are available to anyone willing to invest in Improved Unarmed Strike, but they are by far more appealing to the Monk than to other classes.Įnter the Master of Many Styles. In fact, they’re one of my favorite ways to customize the Monk, both for flavor reasons and for mechanical reasons. Approachable with a slight sweetness and moderate bourbon hit.Style feats are really cool. Overall – A rather pleasant drinking bourbon barrel aged ale. For the flavors and the style along with the bourbon flavors the feel is quite nice and makes for a nice sipper. Mouthfeel – The body of the brew is medium to slightly thicker with a carbonation level that is rather low. Toward the end, the booziness increases a bit and is joined by some buttery toffee flavors, leaving one with a rather moderately bourbon flavored and lightly boozed amber strong ale like flavor to linger on the tongue. As the taste advances the bourbon and oak get stronger and are joined by some peppercorn and a bit of light pear and apple. Right from the start you get a light bourbon and oak flavor as well as some flavors of corn and grain. Taste – The taste starts out with a bready and caramel malt flavor that has notes of toastiness. There is a little bit of toast and some must and hay in there as well, rounding out the aroma. Along with these aromas comes notes of bourbon and oak as well as some corn and grain. Smell – The aroma is strong of a bready and doughy malt smell mixed with lots of caramel and toffee. The head has a great level of retention, fading slowly over time and leaving streaks of foamy lace on the sides of the glass. For Bourbon fans this is a must-try, and for anyone interested in oak aged beers (and the fact that it's not actually barrel-aged) I'd highly recommend it as well.Īppearance – The beer pours a deep amber color with a one finger head of off-white foam. The head held up well considering that it's got a lower carbonation level and 9% alcohol by volume, and the lacing is quite good even for a standard beer. In the mouth it's medium bodied with a gentle caress on the tongue and then a smooth and lightly creamy passing. ![]() I'm left with vanilla, oak, fruitiness, Bourbon, a little bit of bitterness and alcohol, and then an almost toffee-like caramel note and then >poof< it's gone. ![]() It's sweetish but it never really comes off as sweet, perhaps because of the alcohol, and yet it finishes dry. The alcohol is present straight through yet it never steps into the spotlight, it remains in the wings supporting the other players. The flavor is fuller and offers up even more Bourbon with a beautiful note of coconut, soft oak and the dryness that comes with it, a delicately caramelish and probably toasty malt although it's hard to tell, vanilla, dusty cinnamon, and a melange of fruitiness that includes bruised apple, sweet cherry, and black raisin. That's not to say that the aroma is that strong, because it's not, but it does deliver Bourbon and it's pleasant enough. Bourbon with some oak and a light fruitiness dominate the aroma atop a lightly caramelish malt base. It's poured a clear copper colored body with golden and orange highlights beneath a short head of off-white foam. I'm all for that if it works but I'm not sure where the "Four Roses" comes in if it's just Bourbon barrel char. It's an "ALE AGED ON OAK SPIRALS & BOURBON BARREL CHAR". Notes via stream of consciousness: This is labeled "Four Roses" and "BOURBON BARREL ALE" but it's not a barrel aged beer. ![]()
