Deep, beautiful ruby and crimson-tinted brown and amber coloured body with a thinnish, one to two centimetre tall off-white head that stays afloat only for a few seconds and leaves a thin lace on the sides. Aroma of deep yeast and a bright Belgian candi sugar with some alcohol and deep coriander seed freshness here, with a ton of sweetness at the end. Medium to Full-bodied; Rich alcohol and especially malt notes dominate with a bunch of rich cherry and pitted fruit notes on the end, with some big sweetness here that shows alcohol and pungency in a good way. Aftertaste shows the pleasant malt and yeast notes with some caramel, toffee and even fruit notes wit the Belgian candi sugar by far the strongest on the end, but a big breadiness as well. Overall, a nice and enjoyable, complex and pungent beer that shows nicely throughout with a ton of flavours throughout. I sampled this sixteen ounce pour on draught at Tenacity ounce pour on draught at Tenacity Brewing in Detroit, Michigan for US$7,00 with two of my kids on 22-October-2022
