It's our birthday so this was a must. Strong notes of vanilla, oak and chocolate. The only thing missing, the candle.

Draft. A very dark brown beer with a thin brown head. The aroma has notes of roasted malt, caramel, and dried fruit. The flavor is sweet with notes of candy sugar, cinnamon, dried fruits, and a bit of roasted malt, leading to a dry finish.

Black beer, thin head. Smells sweet and fruity. Flavour has caramel, malt, dried fruit, wood and booziness from the barrel, a little chocolate. Rich and smooth and far too drinkable for 11%.
