Reviewed from notes.
The appearance was a dark brown color with a cap of an eggshell white foamy head that fell off at a decent pace. Just a touch of lace.
The aroma had some milk chocolate, some espresso, molasses/maple syrup and then some nuts. Lightly in the background a caramel/toffee backbone assists in the balance.
The flavor was mostly sweet through the previously mentioned aromas and ends up bringing about a nice aftertaste of caramel/espresso/molasses/maple syrup. Extremely smooth and wrapping into the finish very nicely.
On the palate, this one sat about a medium on the body with a fair sipping ability about it. ABV felt as projected and oddly enough with the flavors I already mentioned, this wasn’t cloying. Weird, not sure how they did that.
Overall, a beer like this one would think, oh great - this is going to be a cloying mess, but it wasn’t at all. I would definitely have this one again.
