Appearance: dark brown body with mahogany highlights shining through around the edges. Light tan head and it is easy to pour a two finger head.
Aroma: pouring the ale into the chalice I can smell some spicy notes. Dark bready yeast tones, raisin, brown spice mix,
Flavors: tasty brown spice box like quality, black bready tones, earthy yeast, dark fruits like raisins, sweet caramel malt undertone, spicy and tingling hops dance on the tongue,
Mouthfeel: fine carbonation gives the tongue a fizzy feel, the spice pinches the cheeks and gums, prickly and dry texture on the palate
My Strength Rating: 6.5 – the dark bready notes, brown spice box, and raisins along with the spice makes for a good medium-full bodied ale.
