"I had one of the last pints from the firkin this past weekend. The pour was deep and dark brown with a fading, creamy head, once the glass was nearly done a thick layer of yeast had settled to the bottom...nice. It smelled like whiskey, wood, chocolate, vanilla and, well, stout, quite pleasant. The in the mouth it became quite puckeringly dry, between the woody astringincy and warmer serving temperature it was rather chalky in texture. The flavor delivered on the aromatics, however and it was a very different, yet satisfying take on barrel aging."
