Probably my favorite non stout/dark/porter whatever beer so far. The nose was slightly sweet and floral, and the smooth way it goes down is sublime. Maybe the only shortcoming is the finish doesn't linger long.
So I normally hate barrel aged beer, but that's not true of this. The barrel aging makes it "complicated", not nasty whiskey-cherry ick.
Some lightness, some citrus, a hint of barrel aging cherry. There's just a lot going on.
I couldn't get the release year from the server. Quad flavors with a pale complexion, not much spice presence and an almost-there plum flavor that melts into a soft cereal flavor. There's a hint of a bitter funk on the finish before going back to cereal for the aftertaste. Very, very pleasant.
