What the brewers say

“Traditional German hop varieties [at] the tail end of its seven-hour boil bring an earthiness and bitterness that pair great with those rich malted candy and raisin-esque flavors.”

What our panel thought

“Roast malt notes of coffee, toffee, caramel, and light bitter chocolate in the aroma are supported by a hint of floral hops. Despite all the malt, sweetness is quite restrained with a nice, firm, clean bitterness that cuts through.”

What our editors thought

“Lightly bitter burnt crust in the aroma. Subtle, sweet rich malt in the sip, smooth with minimal structure but alluringly rich.”
