Oct 14, 2009 Bottle. Poured a amber blonde witha foamy head. Light honey and caramel nose. Slightly creamy mouthful with some sweetness and light hops. Some oak notes and pretty smooth. The barrel aging adds to the mix but the base beer is only decent.

Oct 7, 2009 The flavor is very sweet, with hints of caramel, honey, vanilla and a little malt.
To sweet for my taste, also a little thin.
Must say that I quickly "got tired" of the beer.

Oct 2, 2009 i think ill just agree with the last posting, very interesting beer, had it after having a very bitter stout so at first the taste was very welcoming malty, but then by the finish i had had enough, lots of honey and vanilla tastes, too sweet for me.

Sep 28, 2009 Light amber color, a tint of orange. Clear. Very nice, foamy, fine head. Very fragrant of malt, toffee, vanilla, a touch of hops, and oak. Very malty flavor, quite a bit sweet, lots of oak flavor, along with tons of toffee and some vanilla. Very smooth, a whiskey-like flavor and finish. Not a whole lot of hopping. Creamy, slightly lactic, a bit like an oaked chardonnay. A very interesting beer, and I do like it a lot, but it is a bit too lacking in balance for me. I could not drink a lot. It needs more hops, more bitter and sour to balance the richness.

Sep 5, 2009 Pours light a light amber with a large white head. It smells quite sour at first, almost skunky, but opens up to aromas of oak and vanilla after a good while. The palate is extradorinary, very creamy and rich. Tastes strongly of vanilla, with a subtle hint of oak and toffee.
