Light brown pour. Thick foam. Sweet flavor of vanilla and not too boozy. Nice balance and a palate of vanilla

12oz bottle. Really nice stuff, quite true to style. Caramel, red fruit, chocolate. Full bodied but quite drinkable for the ABV. Great mouthfeel. All around excellent.

Pour is a dark brown with a foamy tan head. Aroma is dark roasted malt some dark fruit and a herbal spicy hop Flavor is brown sugar sweetness with some molasses and and alcohol. Lots of carbonation and lots of alcohol. While good I was expecting this to be a bit better. The bottle said that was good until 2024 but as of right now it's a bit hot and boozy.
