Batch 60.
Pours very dark brown, almost black with a large head. Lacing is thick, sticky and copious.
Aroma is promising at first, but then a sharp cider smell wafts in and significantly subtracts from the aroma experience.
The taste masks the apple flavors, via the deep fruitcake and alcohol flavors that are upfront and delicious. It drinks much better than it smells. Large alcohol is obvious, and this is a rich beer. A little bit of bitterness in the finish but not much.
Good, coating mouthfeel and a good drinkability.
