Doesn’t give too much away on the nose - some dark fruit, a little spice. Rich. Dark fruit is prevalent with a solid bitterness and some alcohol heat. Fruity hops as it warms. A bit restrained, but enjoyable. Fruity hops appear as it warms. A little bit spicy on the finish too.

650ml bottle pours brown in color with a finger of off-white head and a few spots of lace. Aroma is caramel and dark fruits with a trace of chocolate malts and alcohol. Taste is big malty sweetness up front with some nice hoppy bitterness to create a nice balance of flavors. Medium to heavy body and some light carbonation. A good beer to sip on a cold winter day.

On tap beer #3 at Big Game @ Sierra. nice dark hue, off white coffee head. Aromas are big, boozy, citrus, roasted malts, caramel. Palate is crazy smooth, ABV hidden well, big malty bomb with bitter hop finish. I’d actually say this one could age well.
