Sweetish maltiness with a hint of floral hops on the nose. The aroma is dry and roasty. Coffee is evident, chocolate a bit more sublte. Some grains and sourness similar to rye beers. Finishes dry and roasty with mild but cheery fruitly/floral hoppines. The palate is dry, slightly ashy and it has sourness of coffee beans.
