On tap @ Avery Strong Ale Fest 2015. Dark brown appearance with a dark brown head. Banana, heavy apple / pear, chocolate in the nose. Boozy, sweet caramel / chocolate flavor. Seems like there’s some oxidation. Also, plenty of apple and banana in the flavor. Medium light body. Boozy. Not that great.

Sample at the Flatiron Park taproom. Pours a dark brown color with ruby around the edges, and a medium foamy beige head that diminishes gradually. Partial rings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of oak, fruit and yeast. Full-bodied with a vinous oak character and flavors of earthy yeast, dark fruit and grainy malt. The finish is oaky and fruity with a mild bourbon aftertaste. Borderline messy but pretty good overall.
