1/12/2019: Today I chilled and poured a sample of the finished beer.
Appearance: Cloudy, orangey gold color with thin beige head that doesn't stick around long.
Aroma: Slightly fruity Belgian yeast "bubble gum" flavor mixed with oak and brandy. Flavor: Sweet brandy comes through initially, then oak, ending with nicely balanced fruity/malty finish that lingers pleasantly and melds with the oak.
Mouthfeel: Medium and honestly a little flat, but a little creamy also. Hopefully with more time in the bottle we'll get more carbonation and a better mouthfeel.
I think in a future version I would add an ounce or two of Special B malt to darken it a little, and to maybe add a little complexity on the malt side. I might also consider using gelatin finings to clear it up and bottling with a fresh yeast like CBC-1 to help it carbonate.
