Dec 30, 2005 Bottle aged about one year: black with no head, rich malts brown sugar wood and molasses, starts and ends sweet, with a rich aftertaste. Very drinkable for a barrel-aged beer.

Nov 19, 2005 Black pour with a small tan head. Smell had whiskey, oak, roasted chocolate, coffee and port. Taste was really smooth but quite strong. The chocolate taste was really nice. The oak and whiskey were present but the balance was good. Mouthfeel was not real thick but I love chocolate and oak so I’ll give it a high score. Enough ranting. This beer was pretty good.

Oct 26, 2005 Lucky enough to sample from a keg aged in a Jack Daniels barrel. Wow. Dark black pour, instant whiskey nose along with great roasted maltiness. Only downside,if you aren’t a Jack fan. Alcohol is evident, but the rich malts overcome. Great beer.

May 11, 2005 On tap @ Anam Kara. Good nose, viney, coffee, not much of the wood showing up. Nice clean reddish black color. Almost no head, little brownish beige cover that disappeared altogether. Bitter flavors, same as aromas with the whiskey/oak showing up, though mellow. Medium bodied, creamy mouthfeel, Roasty bitter finish. I like it, but I’m a tad biased with Smuttynose, Glad I swung by for this one.
