Very dark brown body, light brown cap. The smell is a rye barleywine with a little bit of burnt honey. Taste is striking because it has more of a honeycomb and not super sweet. It is nice how the rye, barley and earth tones are allowed to come through with some bitterness and balance. Feel has a little more booze, but still relatively dry and light. Early fall would be when I would break this out
