Aroma is mainly roasted with dark malts. Long lasting head with lots of lace. Flavor’s fairly dry, similar to nose.and balanced. Very easy drinking.

Pour is a dark brown with a small tan head. Aroma is an ok dark malt with a little mustiness. Flavor is a decent char roasted malt with a super dry finish. A little more of the roasted malt comes out as this warms. A bit thin but still has that lager hot summer day thirst quenching to it even with the dark malt.
