What Our Editors Thought
“Strong aroma with bits of peach, cherry, and red currant over honey-drenched toast. Big in the flavor as fruitier esters amplify the sweet malt with a significant chocolate bitterness.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Aroma offers dark fruit, graham cracker, burnt sugar, roasted malts, toffee, a touch of minerality, some Cascadian hops. Taste leads with caramel and graham cracker that are quickly countered by piney resin and a lasting hop bitterness that doesn’t overpower the delectable dark fruits.”
What the Brewers Say
“Features notes of spice, a robust malt character, hints of toffee and cocoa.”
