A classic amber ale that was conditioned on Brazilian Amburana wood. The malt driven honey and caramel-covered biscuit notes are enhanced with notes of cinnamon, vanilla and nutmeg from the Amburana.

Canned 8/31/23; drank 9/11/23 @ the Yarchives.

Mostly see-through red/orange appearance.

A rough pour yielded a nice khaki head; a thick curtain of lacing remained.

Wood, peanut butter & leather notes in the nose. Interesting...

Creamy medium mouthfeel.

Wood & suntan lotion flavors up front; dry leather notes on the finish.

This smelled intriguing but iffy...and tastes intriguing but kind of bad. An interesting experiment that, for me, ultimately failed.
