Forty Winks - Wine Barrel

This sat in my cellar at least a year. Maybe 2? No bottle date. Ok for a red grape stout. Mild vinous character through the sip. Very mild roast. Body is pretty thin. Decent.

hazy dark black, a small 1 finger head, dark brown. aroma is a light sweetness with sweet red wine and sugary syrup. Good mouthfeel, thick, a little dark fruit, graham cracker and cereal. lots of red wine at the finish.

Draft/Fest. A- Cocoa, mild red wine. A- Dark brown color, dark liquid, light brown head. T- Red wine, velveeta cheese. P- Full body, average texture, average carbonation, cheesy finish. O- Something must have been slightly off as it picked up a weird cheese flavor. That said, I sort of enjoyed it. The wine barrels didn't do a ton for this beer as I hoped for, but it did at a bit of tannic touch, however, this cheese flavor dominated all.
