Taster showing dark brown with no head.

The nose shows moderately intense notes of adzuki and light soy sauce.

The palate is well carbonated and light bodied but oily. Toasted maltiness and light adzuki with a very mild hoppy bitterness.

Still a great beer. Doesn’t have the sweetness and adjunct-heavy character or mouthfeel of some of the newer big bois, but solid thick roasty chocolate, lots of coffee, smooth. Layered
