Bottle courtesy of SuzyGreenberg I believe. Pours dark brown with forced bubbly tan head. Aroma of smoke, chocolate, oak, bourbon, and sweet cherries. Taste is more smoke, vanilla, bourbon, roasted malts, light on the cherries. Moderate palate, not much carbonation. Finish is alcohol, roasted malts, and slight bourbon. I had high hopes for this one, and it just didn’t deliver. Still a good beer though.

Dec 2, 2009 2008 bottle thanks to thethrone on BA. Pours a clear dark reddish-brown color with a thin tan head and some sediment sitting at the bottom. Aroma is amazing - cherry, roast, vanilla, red wine, oak, bourbon, and sherry. Sweetness and tartness evident. Flavor is a nice balance of sweet and tart, with underlying roasted malt flavors from regular Adam, as well as a complex dark fruit character, with tart black cherries, dried plums, red wine, and berries. Vanilla, oak, sherry, and bourbon are all also in there. Not too much booze, although it is definitely there. It is interesting that this was aged in sherry barrels, since that is a flavor that is often considered a bad thing as it can denote oxidation. Smooth on the palate with medium body and a slight tart bite. Low carbonation. Overall an amazing beer, although I think I prefer regular Adam just a hair (of the dog) more.
