7.4/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 7.5
Bottle from the brewhouse retail store. Reddish dark brown pour, big beie head. Aroma is sweet, lots of chewy caramely malts and some ripe fruit. Hints mollases, and maple too. Big thick mouth feel, solid carb. Finish is semi sweet, loads of chewy malts again, fruity caramels and cereals, quite nice.

In mouth, a nice sweet caramel malt with light nutty notes, powdery character, light butterscotch, OK. Bottle at Pushkinwows New squirter inauguration.
