(Draught) Pours a clear amber body with a small off-white head. Aroma of toasted biscuit, raisins, caramel, apple, and toffee. Flavor of mild hops (resin, herbal, earthy), caramel, and bready malt.

12 oz. bottle - thanks to pepsican for the trade; pours dark orange-red with some floaties; strong aromas of sugar and sweet malts; almost barley wine-ish; drinks dry and creamy with an almost syrupy texture; very sweet and overall like a thin barley wine

Bottle thanks to thedm. I didn’t decant this as well as I could have, so I got a murky reddish amber color with a sticky khaki head. Sweet nose with caramel, light toast and alcohol. Thick, sweet beer with lots of caramel, toffee, malt syrup, light toast, and noticable alcohol. The finish shows a piney hop and more more alcohol. Really easy to drink for the strength. Nice beer.

Bottle. Murky dark ruby color with no head. Very malty aroma with caramel notes. Thick body with toffee and nice caramel flavor. Light roasted bittersweet finish. This is good stuff.
