tap at Indiana Winterfest - hmm... others rated a winterfest brew under the regular "Rudolph’s Revenge" entry, but my notes definitely indicate a barrel aged version. Odd. At any rate, it pours deep golden. The aroma is malty and quite woody. The flavor has very sweet malt and big oak flavors from that barrel. It works well together and I enjoyed this one.
