Pours medium brown color with tan head. Toasted malt aroma with some nuttiness. I’m also getting some vanilla and woody aromas. Moderately sweet fruity flavor with some vanilla, chocolate, wood and alcohol. Medium body with mild carbonation. Probably their best offering but definately not worth the price tag IMO.

Pours deep brown with thin tan head. The aroma is big and bold with robust aged oak, vague hints of sweetness and roast in the background. The taste begins smooth and sweet and then quickly picks up mild vanilla and then a truck load of oak. The oak isn’t the bright fresh cut stuff but rather somewhat aged. I would prefer to try this with less contact time with the wood. This beer has just been swallowed up by this treatment. Still the smoothness really kept it from getting out of control oaky.
