Finished window shopping with the missus so on to my reward - beer! Akitu Whiskey Ale 9% 20 IBU on tap at the Nampo Taproom. A lovely amber color with a 1cm dense head of foam. The aroma is bready malts, floral and mild fruity notes. Medium bodied with a smooth mouthfeel. The taste is a really nice smokey oak, berries, then boozy whiskey notes. Well balanced and tasty. Too bad the Barrel Aged Camelia IPA was out as I’d have loved to try that as well.
