Sampled from tap at Borefts 2017. Hazy, golden amber with a beige head. Sweetish-malty, slightly fruity aroma of caramel, honey, raisins and vanilla. Rather sweet, malty, a little fruity taste of caramel, honey, vanilla and some raisins, followed by a medium long, moderately bitter, quite warming and a bit boozy finish. Full body, oily mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Nice!
