Bottle 35,5 cl. Pours a clear amber with tiny, floating impurities and a lacing, white head. Typical American biscuit aroma - not so much hop aroma though. Rich, super sweet and sugary body - almost cloying. Biscuit and crystal malts. Super bitter finish. 100225

Bottle. Clear amber, a dense inch of near white head. Aroma of kumquat, mango skin, somewhat sticky breadcrust. Oozy. Full bodied, moderate carbonation. Sweet and rich but not syrupy and never seems heavy. Lots of mainly tenor register fruit but there's enough of a top note and peppery bitterness to lighten it a bit. No overt alcohol. They do seem to have this one on a string.
