What the brewers say

“Huge caramel and dark fruit dominate the aroma.”

What our panel thought

“Big malty aroma with notes of caramel pastry, light chocolate, red apple. Great balance with the alcohol and sweet, bready malt flavor (toffee and caramel malt), dates, and figs. Low spicy alcohol with a light chocolate in the finish.”

What our editors thought

“Beautiful toasty, bready, raisiny, and boozy panettone-like notes in the aroma. Deep toasted and burnt bread crust notes in the flavor, focused by an ethanol buff for high relief.”
