Mar 25, 2008 Bottle. Brown amber body. At first a creamy begie and big head. Whlle drinkin it sinks down and disapears. Aroma is sweet and quite nutty, malty and grassy. Flavor is from roasted malt and burnt sugar. Palate is round and warming. Small bitter aftertaste. A negative thing is that some alcohol shows through in the flavor.
