A friend found this burried in a closet so I can’t be sure of it’s condition : Cloudy and brown with a large head. Aroma is malty and alcohol with some hoppyness. Flavour is malty and mild with a lightly bitter aftertaste. Would’ve liked to have tried it fresh (or better taken care of)

Murky brown color. Large foamy head. Aroma is malty with a touch of pineapple and citrus. A medium bodied ale. Malty and somewhat hoppy. Mild flavor. Tasty beer. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean. Aftertaste is slightly bitter.

A great winter warmer, hoppy, dark, great malt nose and a hearty flavor that sticks to your ribs.
