What Our Editors Thought
“Thick caramel layers in the aroma with a floral brightness. Bold in the flavor with a strong vinous fortified-wine note, but the burnt bread crust bitterness keeps it regimented.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Aromatics of caramel, toffee, toast, and roast with notes of fruit leather and grape juice. Sip brings rich, layered malt edging toward cloying. Distinct boozy warmth comes early and lingers long. Finish is lightly sweet and boozy.”
What the Brewers Say
“Flavors of coffee and chocolate. Hints of dark fruit and spice. Slightly sweet. Boozy.”
