Notes

First Brewed 02/2014

On the nose, clove and nutmeg, cafe au lait, subtle dark fruit notes, and hints of candied lemon peel. On the palate, smooth & fruity espresso, milk chocolate, and warm brandy-soaked currants are in the middle of a high-class dance-off against the spicy and peppery Belgian character. The overall impression evokes malt loaf or ginger cake.
For the traditional cellering, age this beer in vessel or bottle for 2 - 3 months at cellar temperature.
