On draught at the brewpub, this is the December selection in Elevator’s "PHD" program. The beer is a dark mahogany-amber color with a medium off-white head that diminishes gradually to a dense film. Patchy lacing on the glass. Aroma of malt, dark fruit and yeast. Medium body with flavors of caramel malt, raisins and earthy yeast. The finish is sweet with a malty aftertaste. Pretty good overall.
