Brown with small beige head. Light malt and alcohol nose. Thin watery malt profile, slightly vinous, Hints of light spice and vanilla,light roast and dark fruit. Boring !!

650mL bottle, split with manuchampions, Matts_Property and uhlan, pours a deep dark brown / black with a small beige head. Aroma of oak chips, vanilla, slight molasses, roasted malt and spices (cinnamon and nutmeg). Flavour of tobacco, sweetened chocolate (like an O'Henry chocolate bar), but this dies off, vanilla, no presence of the oak or spices. Nothing offensive, but neither remarkable. Solid attempt.
