2020 barrel in 2022. Big cherry bitters tone, not sure about that part. Barrel is smooth, sugary, tarry sweet. A real experience beer, bold and memorable. Somewhat peppermint candyish, almost pastry, but a fuller backbone than that. Really good.

Dark copper with a small beige head. Baking spices, cinnamon and caramel. Much like the nose. None of the smoke expected.

This is a great beer. Rich malt. Light smoke. Some tobacco, earth, salty and the cherry at the end. Very good.
