A little bit low on the aroma. Might be too much carbonated maybe. Many tastes in the palate, but the alcohol dominates a little bit. Good beer though.

This beer is start to finsh breath taking. You start with a aroma that is sweet malty and fruity in the banana foster vein. Flavor sweet,malty,hoppy and full of yeast and candy sugar.

Beers pours a a dark amber color with a 3 finger head with thick lace. Big favors of banana, vanilla, And yeast, tons of burnt candy sugars, and cream. Another great quadruple to drink.
