2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 6/20
Bottle. Murky bronze in color with a small white head. The aroma is pretty foul. Toffee, chocolate, some dirty kitchen sink that hasn’t been cleaned in weeks and has a small puddle of standing water. Taste is better but it is very sugary. Tastes like a boozy sugar baby candy. Not too heavy of a body. Pretty forgettable.
