From the can, it pours a clear dark reddish brown color with a modest, lasting light brown head that slowly reduces to a thin layer. The nose gets caramel and roasted malts. The mouth gets the same - a smooth brew with notes of caramel and roasted malt with a slightly sour aftertaste.

A: dark brown in color, with a ruby hue when held to the light, light tan head.
S: sweet and nutty, with notes of caramel and a hint of spice.
T: Rusty and malty with raisin, dried fruit, and a hint of caramel. Finish is dark berry.
M: medium in body with moderate carbonation.
O: better than a jelly if the month club.

Deep amber in color topped with about 1f reddish tan cap. Thick film, good lacing. Beer blood look.
Aroma of lightly alcohol soaked fruit and malt mix, cherry and berry.
Rich sweet malt. Not as fruity as it smells. Cherry and raisins, winter spiced.
Smooth and sweet lager body. Island spices.
Winter warmer quality.
Qualifies as a cold day sipper worthy of sharing.
