Draft. A- Dark fruits, chocolate. A- Black color, black liquid, minimal head. T- Grape, chocolate, light port wine, mild booze. P- Full body, thick texture, average carbonation, balanced finish. O- Wow this was tasty. If there hadn't been a number of barrel aged beers on tap I wanted to sample, I could've nursed a couple of these all afternoon. Very smooth too, you'd never know this was anywhere near 14%. The port barrel gives a new flavor to an already great beer. Zipline knows how to use a barrel and I'm glad port is now in their rotation. This was not necessarily super duper complex but it worked very well. Wouldn't mind a bottle or two sitting around to age.
