Thanks to puzzl for sharing - this is the second beer I’ve had in the last week that has been shared by a fellow ratebeerian which I have recently traded for myself - what am I supposed to do with MY bottles, guys!? - anyway, let that stand as a sign of just how great it is to be a NY ratebeerian - anyway, this poured a very turbid reddish orange, with a thick, lasting head - aroma of dough, fig, apple, pear, earthiness, light background funk, and nicely mellowed hops - the flavor is very british in character, with some dough, a lot of fruitiness, mild acidity, and loads of earthy qualities - a lot of cherry and fig - oats - alcohol is warming, but not potent or overpowering - a little on the sweet side, but very tasty.
