Can be cellared for long periods, under the proper conditions.

The Pour - Pours a cloudy orange/brown color with a tan head that disappears. Good lacing.
Aroma - Licorices, candy, vanilla, and oak tannins, and hints of coconut (strange).
Taste - Same a the aroma.
Mouth Feel - Just the right amount of carbonation and medium body.  Smooth.
Drinkable - Very strange taste that lingers.  It can be a nice drink it you like the odd taste.  I will let it age a bit before trying another bottle.  Cannot taste the alcohol at all, very well hidden.

This beer pairs well with deserts and cheese.
