Bottle shared with Ben and Streets at EMP. Pours a dark amber brown body with thick brown lacing. Aroma is very mild, light notes of cocoa, maple, and some nut. Mouthfeel is thin with notes of cocoa and sweet malts. I don’t get any of the barrel-aging in this one.

Bottle at Eleven Madison Park. Pours with a clear brown body with red highlights and a fading tan head. Good lace. Aromas are nutty, fresh feeling, yet earthy, dry, leathery, biscuity. Coconut, wood, barrel and vanillin. Restrained. Flavors are nicely malty, caramel, bready, vanillin, subtle maple, barrel, tobacco and oak. Medium body with low carbonation. Mildly warming and developed tannins. Very good stuff, but not quite Local 11.
