Sample at Brew Kettle. This brew is a clear dark amber color with a thin and compact off-white head that recedes steadily. Small patches of lacing on the glass. Aroma of earthy malt and caramel plus a touch of hops. Rich, sweet body with notes of peaty malt, earth and woody hops. Warming alcohol in the background as well. The finish is sweet caramel malt with an earthy aftertaste. Decent hybrid style overall.
