“Caramel, toffee, and chocolate flavors greet the senses with every sip,” the brewery says. “A slight piney and citrusy bitterness from classic Pacific Northwest hops helps to balance the malty flavors and lasts well into the finish. Judicious amounts of flaked oats create a smooth, creamy mouthfeel that will entice you into another sip.”
