12oz canned 8/5/20, purchased at the brewery 10/5/20. Opened 10/17/20.
2 finger beige head, outstanding retention. Thin, wispy lacing.
Dark brown, red-brown tint with good clarity.
Light roast notes, molasses and brown sugar, mild coffee with chicory.
Malty delicious...light roast with a light maple/corn syrup taste.
Body is somewhere between light and medium, soft carbonation and mouthfeel.
Roasty, medium length finish with just a touch of sweetness.
Drinkability is very high.
Very Good.
