Bright copper hue with a big fluffy off white head. Dark fruit cake smells with a hint of spice, touch of cinnamon raisin bread. Crisp and smooth with a rolling carbonation. Medium bodied with buttered toast flavors through on the sides of the tongue. Sweet sugared fruits on the tip of the tongue. Burnt toast ends on the back end of the tongue with english earthy hops that create a super dry yet balanced finish; balance between the semi-sweet fruityness an earthy bitternes, balance between the rich butteriness and dryness. Touch of alcohol heat warms the belly. I like it, much bigger and bolder than i expected from sam smith. creamy rich, meaty, buttery, dry and earthy. kind of tastes like a buttered and toasted piece of cinnamon raisin bread as it warms.

Serving type: bottle
