Aromas are a subdued blend of spice, caramel, pale malt, and bit of floral. Flavors are somewhat similar to nose, sweet up front with some unbalanced bitter in the back. Don't really pick up the vanilla, ginger nutmeg or cinnamon. Let me take a tiny bit of that back because in the finish I do pick up some spice that might be one of those but it's very mild.
