Rich aroma of brown malt and darkish fruit. Mahogany color with a coarse beige/tan head. Near medium in body with fizzy carbonation. Flavor is mild roasted malt, perhaps a bit nutty, with arguably floral bitter. There is a bit of heat. The finish is decently dry, and there is hop in the finish. A mild drink which is exceptionally tasty, though fresh from the cask is better.
