The bottled stuff was made with oak chips in the fermenter, which was "close" but nowhere near to the real deal. At some point after JB sold the brewery to Coastal (the new ownership: 51% Fordham, 49% Anheuser-Busch), the recipe was standardized to the oak chip version. It was seriously not as good. I had it recently on tap (the oak chip version), and it was good, but a pale shadow of what it used to be...

Now they are just thrown on the side of the images. Kinda bums me out. I wish i was beer so i could get a “mouth feel”
