The nose is very yeasty with copious almond, dark fruit and figs, orange, and pepper. Flavor is yeasty and sweet with some dusty malt and woody pear. Palate is large but a little fizzy which seems overbearing given the already aggressive pepper and yeast in the beer, but this is still a good one. nearbeer (1362), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA Sep 25, 2008 33 cl, bb 14/02/2011. Opaque, dark copper-brown with a gushing head that settles to a lasting half-inch of creamy cappuccino-like foam. Aromas of nutmeg, brown sugar, dates, plums, cinnamon and bread pudding. Flavor is all the same, plus some caramel, wheat, apple, chocolate, oak, light citrus and rum. Medium-heavy body is smooth and amazingly well-dried for all the big malt flavors.
