look: 3.75 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.5
No real head, dark auburn brown color

Nose big sweet caramel malts toffee, candy syrup, big fruity esters, fig, date, little candied banana, big candied raisin, little fusel perfumey alcohol, touch of chocolate

Taste big toasted caramel, tons of Vienna malt, reddish toasty amber malt, biscuity, caramel but not support caramely, toffee, biscuity, now fruity esters, candied banana, raisin, fig, candy syrup, molasses, fair bitterness with spicy herbal hops, more fusel alcohol tingle, and mildly unpleasant bitter hop and alcohol combination on the finish,

Mouth is med bod, medium low carb and hot alcohol

Overall unique beer, all Vienna malts brings less depth than normal and too much weird biscuit and bitter roast, hops bring too much spice and clash with the hot alcohol, needs a few fixes imo
