From Bine and Vine, bottle #26709.
Pours a clear amber with a tiny head of foam that shrinks quickly to a small island in the middle and ring around the glass.
It smells of caramel malt, dark fruits, brown sugar, bits of vanilla and maple syrup.
The taste is includes all that I listed in the smell. Alcohol is noticeable. No sense of any bitterness or tartness. Wonderfully sweet and complex.
Not quite full bodied with good carbonation despite the lack of foam, I would drink this again.
