Dark brown color. Huge hit in the nose, dark chocolate mousse, molasses, cherries, prunes, a touch of vanilla in the nose. Really amazing nose. Big rich mouth with brandy and cherries really pronounced, tons of dark chocolate and dark fruit. Very full body. Low carbonation. Malty rich, but never cloying. Super delicious high ABV beer. Fantastic. Vanilla, dark cherries and a touch of chocolate linger in the finish. Warming finish. Superrrrrrrrbbbbb.

Draught @ Hair of the Dog, Portland, OR
Pours dark brown with no head. Aroma of malts, cherries, wood, vanilla, oak and ripe fruits. Taste is smooth, heavy, complex and sweetish with loads of wood, cherries, oak, vanilla and raisins. Finish is sweet, malty and woody with loads of cherries and oak. Quite smooth, yet heavy and complex.
