Oct 30, 2008 Rich aroma with orangish and chocolaty accents, some mild dried fruits, caramelized sugar, liquorice, and woodiness. Dark brown with minimal head. Rich woody flavor of good long duration. Not a lot of complexity. Some brown sugar, chocolate, smoke. Single pleasant note stays on the tongue a long time. Carbonation is mild. Palate is smooth, not too heavy, but thick enough. Drying slightly on the finish. A decent winter warmer before bed.

Very soft, almost faint carbonation. Finishes with more soy sauce, caramel, burnt barbecue sauce, molasses, dark chocolate, and oak. Nice!

Oct 23, 2008 Bottle #05283 September 2007: Pours near black with a bubbly khaki head. The aroma is meaty with raisin, BBQ sauce, dark chocolate and only mild oak. Slick body with a fairly lighter feel than expected. Some roasted character in the flavor with a raisin/chocolate sweetness but it’s mild. The malt character is smooth and integrates well with the oak. The oak peeks through later on. Smooth and well balanced.

Oct 20, 2008 Bottle in NYC.
Very dark beer, small head that disappears fast. Strong whisky aroma.
Smooth beer, lots of vanilla from the oak underlines the sweetness. Warming alcohol edge. Very decent, but it is interesting that everyone is jumpin on the barrel aging trend now.
