Nose: very light brown sugar, some baking spices, vanilla Palate: rye bread, caramel, vanilla a faint maltiness Finish: short, tart apples, some more baking spices Low proof hurts this one, it has mass appeal as an easy drinker but nothing to write home about, the neither the malt or mgp rye show through. I doubt it would even stand up in mixed drinks very well.
