The aroma is intense with caramel, bread, yeast, raisins, pepper, dark sugar, and malt. The flavor echoes the nose with a little more subtlety. Mouthfeel is thick with a modest spiciness to accent the sweet malt profile. This is a little to simple, and "fruit-forward in wine talk for me. Too sweet without balance. A dissapointment from St. B

For the price, this stuff is unbeatable. Sickboy282 (1098), San Diego, California, USA
