Sample at MBCC 2018. Poured a clear straw colour with little life. The aroma is sweet malts, phenol. The flavour is moderate sweet with a big honey tropical fruit, warm alcoholic bitter palate. Medium to full bodied with flat carbonation. Didn’t like the aroma but after that it was super sweet, rich and satisfying.
