Adam from the Wood is our Adam aged in American Oak barrels. First released in 2000, and released again in November 2011 in 12oz bottles. This 12% beer has lots of the typical HOTD aromas: Caramel, brown sugar, tons of raisin and tobacco. Fig, date, and plum fruitiness in that order. This has a fairly strong earthy vinousness as well as oak vanilla.

Bottle shared with Dutchdrebus @ Drebus’ birthday tasting. Opaque dark brown to black color, average sized light brown head that diminishes quickly. Smell and taste malts, firm bourbon, some alcohol, sweet malts. Balanced mouthfeel, suitable body and carbonation.

Sweet flavor with caramel, chocolate, vanilla, bourbon, a tart note, cookies, some dark fruits, and a bit of booziness. Full-bodied. Great stuff. Complex.

Looks rather murky and flat. Aroma has lots of Bourbon whiskey and booze. Very silky and smooth. Warming. Lots of vanilla in the aftertaste. Perhaps a bit too boozy but still very nice.
