Pours reddish cola brown with big foamy white head. Aroma is sweet caramel and roasted, bready malts; some spiciness like ginger snaps. Taste is sweet caramel malts, raisin, spices of cinnamon and light clove. Medium, lightly sweet malts with dry and tart yeasty notes. Great sweetness, but not too sweet with perfect amount of carbonation yielding to a beautiful dry finish. Amazingly refreshing, superlatively balanced, complex and satisfying.
