A collaboration with Galleano Winery.
First off, I don't typically get excited about wine barrel aging in beer.
having said this, Wow!
First off, it pours nicely, finger-plus of tan head recedes to a thin, consistent film. Good retention for style. Slight lacing.
Smell is dark raisin, caramel, and dates, but then a kiss of sherry. Not overwhelming, more graceful.
Taste is more of the same. The darker fruit notes are deep, the caramel nuanced, and the sherry is light and mildly fruity. A woody barrel note is there, but almost hidden.
Mouthfeel is solid enough. Carbonation is on the lighter side. A drying out finish cuts some of the malt note.
Overall, I find this a very tasty use of sherry barrel aging. Seek it out.
