12 ounce bottle. Pours a very dark amber color, almost a brown with a slightly off white head. The aroma is primarily a nice sweet malt. The palate is nice, slightly dry but it feels like it fills the mouth. The flavors are strong, there are some hints of molasses and fruit but with a strong malty background. The alcohol is not overly strong, but it does provide some warmth. All in all, this was a very excellent beer.
