22 oz bomber. Pored into a mug. Pours a cloudy brown color with a slight red hue. Almost like muddy river water. Head was frothy but diminished quickly. Great lacing that covered the glass while you drink and stays with you till the end. Nose is sweet with malts and caramel. Mouthfeel is medium with average carbonation, a little bit creamy. Flavor is slightly sweet with malts and breadlike flavors. Some nuttiness is in there . I enjoyed this one. Well worth the price for a bomber.
