An average pour released a finger of espresso foam colored creamy froth with a lasting ring, small spots remain. Cloudy dark reddish-brown body with red/orange highlights.
Mild smell of classic baking spices greets the nose with an American Brown Ale malt profile, I think this is based on Zamboni Brown. Mild indistinguishable hops in the background.
Bold taste of toasted bread, roasted grains and some caramel malt; balanced by a balance of hops and spices. An attempt at a general fruit sweetness falls short. Starts semi-sweet with average bitterness, the finish is soft from carbonation, semi-dry, bitterness reaches above average. All of the tastes linger evenly.
Medium-light bodied with loads of carbonation, soft and smooth for an 8%-er. Alcohol is well hidden behind the spice. Warms very well, flavors build as the alcohol remains cryptic yet gains that warming effect.
