Tap. Pours clear dark brown with a small, fizzy off-white head, short retention with spare lacing. Aroma is caramel and cookie malt, spices, light hops and dark fruity esters. Flavor is malt dominant with spices, light hops and a sweet finish. Medium body, warmth and carbonation.

Draft at brewpub. Pours brown with a thin head. Fairly prominent caramel malt on the nose. A bit sweet on the nose with lots of malt shining through. Finishes clean. Solid example of style.

Thanks to Ffej for sharing a growler of this at a recent tasting. Pours a dark golden amber/chestnut color with golden orange hues when held to a light source. One finger frothy off white head with good retention, slowly fading into a lasting ring. Sporadic spots of lacing left behind. Slightly smokey aroma with hints of caramel, toffee. biscuit and hazelnut. Faint hops and bready yeast in the nose. On the fuller end of medium body with a decent balance of zesty spice, sweet malt, alcohol and dark fruit. Hints of coriander, clove and pepper followed by sweet caramel malt with toffee and biscuit notes. Nice dark fruit flavor toward the finish, especially raisin and fig.
