Can (10/smudge) from trade with CLW--thanks, Chris! Opaque, dark brown, nice sparkle, decent creamy head with excellent retention and tons of soapy lacing. Aroma is nice roasted malt, leather, pine and mild citrus. Taste is strong, sweet roasted malt, leather, pine, mild grapefruit. Smooth, creamy texture, average carbonation and finish as taste. Aroma could be a little stronger but everything is as it should be across the board. Very nice!

16 oz can. Aroma of roasted malt, light pine, chocolate. The bold roast them all helps balance the pine. Also shows mellow citrus. Very low bitterness for the style. Good mouthfeel. Superior for the style.
