Bottle at the RBWG 2015 Grand Tasting. Pours cloudy amber with a foamy, off-white head. Sugary and bready malts define this one, along with a bit of caramel, brown sugar. Mild ripe orange. Medium to full bodied with fine to average carbonation. Pretty drinkable stuff. Tasty.

Bottle. Brown-orange color. Nose of caramel, oranges, rather tangy. Tangy flavor of chocolate, orange, pears. Almost tart. A bit light in body, with good, juicy malts and fruit flavors.

Rating 2300...woohoo!! Bottle poured into a shaker. Pours cola brown with a finger of light khaki head. Aroma of caramel, some bright red berries, clove and banana. Taste is light sweet, follows aroma. Wow, very boozy. Full bodied with a thick texture. Lively carbonation and a very long, warming finish. Pretty darn good. Wish I knew the abv on this guys, it’s gotta be up there.
