It poured a deep brown, with small head. Had a very light smell to it. The taste felt watered down, with light roasted coffee and a slight tart finish. Overall I would ahve this again.

Growler from the brewery. Pours a very dark brown color with a thin head. Good head retention and lacing. Aroma is roasted malts and chocolate. Light charred wood notes. Taste is chocolate, coffee, leafy, spicy hops and light smokiness. Medium bodied. Not much influence from the wood, sadly.
