Tasting Notes

"There isn't a really big, intense aroma here. Maybe some peanut shells and a touch of chocolate. The flavors are a little bitter on the finish. On further tastes a bit of orange peel and a fair amount of malt appear on the palate. The finish is short, but pleasant enough. Nothing to write home about."
