(thanks fonefan!). Deep amber colour, mediumsized off-white head. Aroma is sweet malts with some toffee and mild alcohol tones as well as some vanilla and a bit spiciness. Flavour is toffee, fudge, vanilla, some alcohol and mild berries and spiciness to it. Nice aftertaste, but leaves a bit thin as for the palate.
