750ml brown bottle with a suggested drink by date. Bottle #968 out of 3000.
Hazed golden amber hue, enough frothing that lasts the duration. Light vinous note in the nose with hints of wood, nutty yeast and bready malt. Barrel again comes through right away with mild wood tannin and an underlying port character. Muddled bready and yeasty tone meets a modest hopping. I have to keep in mind this is unfiltered and barrel aged so the rustic level is quite high which ends up being a really good thing here.
