3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 bluejacket74 (999) - Reynoldsburg, Ohio, USA - SEP 14, 2012
22 ounce bottle. This one has been in the fridge for quite a while, so I’m sure it has some age on it. Served in a snifter, the beer pours a reddish/amber color with about an inch light tan head. Head retention is good, and there’s a small amount of lacing. There’s also some sediment floaties noticeable. It smells like dark fruit (raisins, grapes), caramel, oak, candy sugar and some apple. The taste is similar to the aroma, it tastes like grapes, raisins, oak, white wine, and caramel. Mouthfeel/body is medium, it’s a bit creamy and has moderate carbonation. I liked this brew, but I’m thinking I probably should have drank this one sooner.
