Undated can drunk 1/25/26, as pictured.
For as many adjuncts as they've put in this, it doesn't smell overdone, and yet you can still smell the various adjuncts mixing with the random malts, with even a levity from the darkness provided by the light, fresh herbal hop character. Clean and with a moderate fruitiness that further keeps it from feeling bogged down in dark malts and spice.
Soft, rich body complements of the oat. They help soak up the acidity from the spice and you're left feeling very mild clove, mild-to-moderate ginger and soft, savory vanilla. Low, but ample roast, with a kiss of hops that somehow work well here. Excellent richness and depth while still retaining a fruitiness, reasonable attenuation and high drinkability. These guys can not be stopped!
