Dark ruby brown and strong with plenty of character from a Belgian yeast strain. Malty sweetness coats the palate, with notes of dried fruits and caramel. Finishes with an alcohol warmth.

2019 vintage. Crowler filled 10/13/20; drank 10/15/20 @ the Yarchives.

Opaque brown appearance.

A rough pour yielded a nice khaki head; decent lace.

Caramel, cream, mild leather & faint raspberry notes in the nose.

Medium mouthfeel.

Caramel & clove flavors up front; booze heat & faint leather notes on the finish.

The nose was better than the taste; it's good, not great.
