A little eruption right after opening. Dark brown colour, hazy, with copper highlights, a big light mocha-coloured head, good stay and some foamy patches. Nutty aromas with some apple notes. The hot spices do come out at last pour, with just a touch of coffee, chocolate and roasted malts. The taste shows a bit of the same. Some decent dryness in the finish to cut any sweetness. The peppery spiciness lingers a touch. It's fine.
