A cloudy brown pour with a bubbly and vibrant head - not visually appealing, but the aroma is nice enough: a bit sweet and clovey. Actual flavor of the beer is simple, although still very drinkable. Heavy notes of chocolate, birch, coconut, and maple dominate with a long, somewhat cloying finish. Not bad as a sipper, although it would be improved by a big hunk of aged gouda.
