Had on tap at the brewery. Pours clear, dark brown in color with minimal head. Taste is walnuts, brown sugar, and toasted malt. Medium low carbonation, sweet, way light bodied. Taste is decent, but the body really threw me off on this one. Think it needs a bit more heaviness to compliment the flavors here. Not a bad beer, but not one I will likely revisit.

Draft at the brewery
Nice creamy head, dark chestnut brown color, good lacing

Nose toasted sweet candy malts, toffee biscuit, quite nutty, toasted walnuts, candy pecan pie

Taste more toasted walnuts, pecan pie sweet filling, caramel biscuity doughy malt, toffee, mild sticky sweet syrupy note hint of bitterness

Mouth is med bod, a bit creamy, decent carb

Overall not bad, a bit too sweet for my tastes but seems to do well with this beer
