Smooth and rich. Slightly bitter at the mid palate, and a bit sharp on the end.

Long week means beer Friday! A bit too boozy but flavor to back it up!

I like this beer. I could drink it all day. But it's not great. It's a little too sweet and reminiscent of cold molasses/coffee. Dark roasted malts on the nose, hint of vanilla. Flavor is molasses, chocolate, sweet dark malt, coffee, little wood and vanilla. Little bit of alcohol bite. Still smooth and enjoyable. Carbonation and appearance all on point. I rate it a 7.9 which I consider pretty good.
