What Our Editors Thought
“Initial sip is a sharp yet subtle roast. A lean, malt-forward profile follows with light toast and perceived nuttiness, finishing dry, with delicate bitterness.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Light nutty-malt notes in the aroma, followed by soft malt flavors. A touch of roast adds complexity. Bitter chocolate and darker-fruit notes on the tongue. Pleasant ester character adds to the fruity impression.”
What the Brewers Say
“Notes of toasted bread, caramel, and earthy hops.”
