Small bottle at the DCBeer May share. Poured a mostly dark brown color, slight translucency. Aroma was light plum, some serious oxidation here, but it still holds up pretty well for being from 2011. Very light, oxidation and cardboard. A little bit of cherry. I'll give it props for that. Wish I had it when it was a bit fresher.
