Low fill - and it shows. Pours muddy brown and flat. Unattractive. The aroma is strong, showing ample oxidation. That has rounded into soy sauce, vague toffee, and sherry. Like a thin SA 3Bock. Toasty, with light milk chocolate. Has a bit of alcohol. The body is thin and the oxidation is perhaps a bit too much.
