750mL bottle. Poured hazy, deeper amber with a couple fingers worth of beige head. The aroma was majorly spicy with coriander, grains of paradise, and the sweet orange peel leading.. warm malty base of caramel and darker fruits.. bright banana-ey yeast topped it off.. I dug it, but it was a bit of a spice bomb. The flavor found caramel, molasses, and some dark fruits at the core, with the same hefty array of spices around (coriander, orange peel, and white pepper led this time).. spicy and rather hot on the long finish. Medium-plus bodied with above average carbonation on the palate.. the balance was skewed a bit too far toward the spices.. hot and a bit sharp. This was certainly solid, but they overdid it with the spices.
