My first beer from this brewer - and one right up my alley. +++ Sampled on draft at Vintage Estate this beer poured a dark brown color with faint orange highlights and a small foamy tan head that left great lacing. The aroma was dry and malty with toffee, chocolate and an underlying fruitiness. The flavor was dry and malty toffee, chocolate, bread crust and a hint of fruit. Medium length finish. Medium body. Well done.
