Rcvd in trade. Consumed April 5, 2013.
The appearance is a brown/slightly dark orange body around the sides of the glass with a three finger foamy off-white head that rises and falls fairly quickly, clingy spider web lacing graces the sides
The smell is basically of booze, cherry and vanilla, and just a little bit of oak coming through as the beer warms.
The taste is sweet and tart through previously mentioned flavors, slight lingering graininess, a bit of toffee comes out as the beer warms, tart aftertaste and a dry finish.
The palate is about a medium, comes across semi-sessionable, and is adequately carbonated.
Overall, well, I’m not an old ale expert or fan, but it just seemed a bit tart than other old ales I’ve had. Would I have this again, hmmm .... unsure because I’d say this is a bit different than other old ales of what I’ve had.
