Bottle: Poured a pitch-black color ale with a large brown foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of roasted malt with light black chocolate notes and light oak notes. Taste is also a mix of light black chocolate notes with some roasted malt notes with a smooth finish with clear oak presence. Body is about full with good carbonation and no apparent alcohol notes. Enjoyable imperial stout with the new oak barrel really making a difference in flavours.
