Howler Head is a banana-flavored bourbon made with real Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey aged in American oak barrels, with all-natural banana flavor and no added coloring, bottled at 80 proof (40% ABV).
Howler Head is the official flavored bourbon of the UFC, and its bold red monkey label matches its playful spirit. It is perfect any way you slice it: neat, on the rocks, as a shot with a beer or in a fancy cocktail.
Unlike many flavored whiskies, Howler Head starts with a two-year-old Kentucky straight bourbon aged in American oak barrels with a No. 4 alligator char, infused with all-natural banana flavoring and no added coloring, so the bourbon character stays visible under the fruit.
Banana cream leads the nose with caramel and hints of charred oak. The palate brings banana bread sweetness over caramel, toffee and brown sugar with a touch of bourbon spice, ending in sugared spices and gentle oak.
Sip it neat or on the rocks, shoot it with a cold beer, or mix a banana Old Fashioned, a banana Manhattan or a tropical bourbon punch. It also adds a fun twist to a Bananas Foster-style dessert drink with a splash of cream, and it pairs naturally with fight night snacks, from wings to sliders. Keep a bottle in the freezer for chilled shots when friends come over.
