Bottle at Toncatchers. Thanks toWeeHeavy who brought it. Cehstnut brown pour with a small tan head. The aroma was fruity with apples and almonds. The taste was lifeless with mellow malts. The mouthfeel was thin and watery. The finish was short and forgettable. Overall: I was not blown away by this one.
