Some nast hops, and some subtle sweetness come through in nose and flavor. The alcohol is well-hidden, but this one is kinda boring. DuffMan (2752), the land of bitumen, beef & beer, Alberta, Canada

Some carbonation and a light tan ring of head. Medium strength aroma of brown sugar and raisin. Sweet, sugary flavor with notes of plum and caramel toffee. Lingering toasty finish and a full-bodied palate. Alcohol content is quite well hidden, but it will wreck your head after a couple of pints. JohnnyJ (1312), Carlsbad, California, USA
