Bottle via a trade. Pours with a deep amber-red hued body with a small but lasting white head. Aromas are very fruity, estery, strawberry, dark fruits, prunes, alcohol, brandy and a lot of dark caramel (Special B). Flavors are sweet, malty, caramel, light leather. Very fruity/estery, strawberry. Light alcohol. For some reason a bit tongue numbing. Mouthfeel: very lively carbonation (way too much). Carbonic acid bite. Dry, medium bodied. Good for a new brewery.
