From bottle @ ACBF 2012. Golden color. Vinous aroma with grapes. Vinous, dusty alcoholic flavor. Cellar notes. A bit of a turnoff after the nice aroma.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottled. An amber beer with a beige head. The aroma has notes of straw, bread, and malt. The lavor is sweet with notes of malt, caramel, hops, alcohol, and bread, leading to a dry finish. Reminds me more of a bock than an old ale.
