Thanks for bringing an older Wild Oats Series back. Pours a clean dark amber colour with lots of active, tiny bubble, carbonation. Warm frothy cap goes down slowly with minimal lacing. Aromas are a mix of hop and malts with notes of spices. The same can be found in the taste, with the malt winning the war in the finish, and lingering a bit longer than the spicy hop. Not seeing any sing of the "aged in oak". Not one of my favorite styles anyways. Still, well-brewed overall.
