Bottle kindly provided by pivnizub. Ruby brown, huge golden brown head which cant wait to get out of the bottle. Roast, dust and caramelized sugar nose. Medium roasted base, light spicy notes, herbal hop balance - a small skunk hiding in the back. A bit light on the palate, thinbodied, light carbonated, quick fnish.
