Bottle shared by Marcus. Pours copper with a slight yellow/beige head. Aroma is earthy with a little caramel and some grape hint. Med body. Flavor is quite earthy, fairly eclipsing the malt. So it’s strongly flavored, hoppy, earthy, pretty bitter. Develops a bit of light stone fruit. Nice experience.
