Color: Dusky gold. Nose: Grassy and grainy, with barley malt predominating and rich vanilla peaking through the floral meadow character. Palate: Silken honey and chewy grains, with a little funk hanging over everything. Delicate citrus notes accent the earthy sweetness, along with a wonderful mouthfeel. Finish: Very light caramel character with a mildewy dampness, like wet leaves after a rain. Diluted: Ripe pears and mossy forest undergrowth on the nose. Palate erupts with increased sweetness; e.g., vanilla fudge and treacle. Finish remains soft, smooth, and funky.
