Description
Abraham Bowman Release No. 6 Gingerbread Beer Finished 7-Year is a Bourbon from A. Smith Bowman Distillery in Fredericksburg, Virginia, bottled at 90 proof (45% ABV). The Abraham Bowman Limited Edition Collection is the distillery’s experimental, small-output line, where Virginia’s oldest continually operating distillery explores how mashbill, maturation, and finishing reshape its whiskey.
This bourbon was finished in barrels that previously held Hardywood’s gingerbread stout, a collaboration-style finishing experiment with a local Virginia brewery. The beer-soaked wood layers warm baking-spice and dark-malt character over the base whiskey, a creative crossover that typifies the Limited Edition program’s willingness to experiment.
With no published per-release tasting notes, the profile follows the distillery’s house character: this experimental bourbon leans on the warm vanilla, caramel, and toasted-oak tones that years in charred Virginia barrels dependably produce, framed by the maturity its age and warehouse time provide.
Produced in very limited quantity as part of the long-running Abraham Bowman Limited Edition Collection, this 2013 release is allocated, hard to find, and seldom seen on shelves. Each numbered entry occupies a fixed place in the series, making the collection a natural target for collectors who track the distillery’s experimental output release by release.
