Appearance: dark brown body with a thin tan head this turned to nothing in a split second.
Aroma: rich sweet caramel, touch of delicate spice,
Flavors: sweet caramel mixed with molasses and brown sugar upfront, dry fig, dried brown spice, touch of pink peppercorn, touch of semi-sweet chocolate, vanilla extract. This is a sipper. When the ale warms up the alcohol spice is a little more noticeable.
Mouthfeel: smooth, a touch boozy or cognac like, note much in carbonation, a syrupy sweetness dominates the palate and lingers on the tongue.
My Strength Rating: 7.5 – the syrupy feel adds some good weight, the cognac likeness adds depth and the complex flavor profile adds a lot of character.
