Poured a deep brown color witha amber highlights and a thin tan head that receded quickly. Strong aroma of candi sugar, bubble gum, plums, raisins, and a hint of clove. A smooth entry with light spiciness leads into a spicy middle with a light yeastiness and undertones of bubble gum and fruit (light banana) and finishes dry with just a hint of smoke. Relatively full on the palate, nice drying finish. Alcohol wasn’t very detectable either. Overall, a nice treat. Thanks again Ty. cellardoor (45), St. Louis, Missouri, USA
