Bottle from Safeway in Bend. Very interesting from the start. Seems part CDA, part barleywine. Notes of chocolate too. Gets bitter towards the end, when the heat comes in too. Still remarkabley smooth, tasty. Nice surprise here.

500ml bottle served in a big snifter. 2017 vintage.
Pours a murky dark brown, small coarse head around the edges with a suggestion of a cirrus pattern spread across the surface. A few clumps of sediment were visible plopping into my glass just before I stopped pouring. Some active carbonation, but not much.
Smell is dark roasted malts, dates, vanilla, and oak. Maybe a little wet cardboard.
Taste is burnt toffee and chocolate, vanilla and oak, more of the wet cardboard, some anise, something slight vegetal. Oaky. Strong bitterness that I can't decide is roasted malt based or old hop based.
Mouthfeel is medium to thick, a little sticky. Overall, it's a pretty good beer, but appears to be a little past its prime.
