Tap, at ZBF 2006. Bronze, thin off white head and moderate condition. Gentle aromas of toffee, caramel and a slight roasted barley note, delicate dry roastiness and sweet caramel in the mouth, with some toffee notes lingering briefly into the finish before a dry chalky yeast note develops.

Aug 8, 2008 750mL bottle, courtesy of argo0. Thanks, Aaron! Pours a murky brown color with golden edges; thin light-tan head with patchy lacing. Basic yeastiness, nougat, and chewy brown sugar in the aroma. Medium-to-full mouthfeel: average, slightly sharp carbonation; brown sugar, basic maltiness, and dark fruits; very basic malt character overall (theme of the evening so far). Touch of chocolate and toasted malts coming through in the finish.
