Sample at Denver Rare Beer Tasting VIII on 10/07/2016. Murky brownish-amber color with a medium thick light beige head that diminishes gradually. Patchy lacing. Aroma of oak, malt, dark fruit and yeast. Full-bodied with flavors of vinous oak, caramel malt, dark cherry and earthy yeast. The finish is boozy and woody with a malt and dark fruit aftertaste. Pretty good overall.
