Vanilla at the front followed by dark fruit and a mark'd sweetness. Slight roast characteristic, though somewhat lost in the sweetness. Very alike a barrel aged beer in both smell and taste. Very creamy, and definitely a sipping beer.

Subtle nose with nothing distinct jumping from the glass. Taste is reserved, for being 10%, but I did pick up on roasted characteristics, chocolate, and slight coffee. There was also a hint of licorice at the finish. Great beer, easy to drink, glad I have 3 more.
