Bottle... Clear amber lager with a small, fizzy, off-white head. Toasted caramel nose. Sweet caramel flavor with adequate, spicy hopping to prevent the sweetness from getting out-of-hand. Good roastiness. Medium to full-bodied and creamy with moderate carbonation. Crisp, lightly sweet, mildly bitter finish. Big-time malt bomb! Cheers to Ughsmash for shipping the bottle!
