aroma has lots of chocolate, cocoa, some sweet caramel, some toffee, some sweet malts.
flavor is malts, dried dark fruits, toffee, faint salty note, raisins, slightly roasted malts, toasted malts, malty bitterness into the end. quite complex barley wine style strong ale - the adjuncts work well, does not come off as artificial.
