12 ounce bottle into tulip glass, no bottle dating. Pours lightly hazy/cloudy deep orange amber/light copper color with a 1-2 finger fairly dense and fluffy cream colored head with good retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Aromas of big honey, caramel, brown sugar, brown bread, and toasted biscuit; with lighter notes of toffee, nuttiness, raisin, cherry, herbal, grass, and yeast/toasted earthiness. Very nice aromas with good balance and complexity of dark/bready malts and light earthy hop/fruity yeast notes; with great strength. Taste of big honey, caramel, brown sugar, brown bread, and toasted biscuit; with lighter notes of toffee, nuttiness, raisin, cherry, herbal, grass, and yeast/toasted earthiness. Light herbal/grassy bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of honey, caramel, brown sugar, brown bread, toasted biscuit, light nuttiness/toffee, dark fruit, herbal, grass, and yeast/toasted earthiness on the finish for a while. Very nice complexity, robustness, and balance of dark/bready malts and light earthy hop/fruity yeast flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance, and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Slight dryness from lingering bitterness as well. Fairly clean lagering, not too fruity/yeasty. Medium carbonation and medium-full body; with a very smooth, moderately creamy/bready/grainy, and lightly sticky mouthfeel that is nice. Alcohol is well hidden, only a mild warmth lingering after the finish. Overall this is a very nice malt liquor style. All around nice complexity, robustness, and balance of dark/bready malts and light earthy hop/fruity yeast flavors; very smooth, clean, and easy to drink for the ABV. Reminds me more of an imperial amber ale or something, but still very enjoyable.
