Poured from 473mL can (thanks Cindy; canned 03/30/2023). Near black with small beige head. Fairly light, uninteresting, but inoffensive, very mild fruity roast malt. Average.

Pale brown, no head. Decently complex aroma, with some fruit, nut, and roast accents. Light body, nutty, with some caramelized sugar complexity. Low bitterness - robust to me means some sort of attempt to properly the hop the stuff, so that's a miss. But the malt character is complex and I appreciate that.

Slightly sweet flavour of spicy rye malt, lemon, oak and grassy hops in a crisp, dry, bitter finish. Light body with a watery texture and average carbonation. Not bad, but was hoping for more.
