Amber in color with a soapy off-white head forming on top. I don’t know if it really smells like acorns, but it is somewhat nutty. It’s quite estery with lots of banana notes as well as some sweet apples. A bit of toasted malt and some sweet bread, maybe a bit of yeast. A bit of yeast flavor as well as some toasted bread. Still quite a bit of banana to it, maybe some toffee and nuts. It does have a slight butter flavor as it warms.
