Default Greene King Olde Suffolk

This is a new one in our area (Kansas City). The bottle says it spends
two years in oak, but I couldn't taste the wood. There was plenty of
malt, very fruity aroma with some raisin and molasses type flavors. It
seemed like there was plenty of alcohol as well. Tasty stuff. I'd take
it over a lot of the beers that call themselves winter warmers this
time of year.

Part of it does, it's a mix between an aged beer and a young beer,
aiming for a subtle balance, so the woody "horse balnket" is pretty subdued.
