    Aroma: 6 | Appearance: 5 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 4 | Overall: 5

    Pours a clean amber colour with bigger bubbles than usual. The head is nice with some creaminess, foaminess, decent retention and creamy lacing. Aromas of rusty water, then yeast and some mild dark fruits (raisins, plums). The taste is even worst, so not balanced. Seems like the hops used here are not the proper ones, adding some bad grass notes over the caramel malts and hints of nuts. Not super horrible, but not something I would have again. Not a great first experience from this brewery. Nice label though.

    The beer pours a trasnlucent reddish-brown with a thin creamy light brown head. The aroma is roasted malt, molasses, weak licorice notes, and weak floral notes. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is burnt molasses, roasted malt, and grains. Looks and smells better than it tastes.
