Crystal clear, deep golden body with a very modest head. Zero retention, zero lace. Appearance reminds me of something like a lighter Utopias, or a scotch.

Nose seems very sugary and sweet and of course this gets transferred to the taste.

A little medicinal, NOT too astringent, and drier than expected in the back end. Starts off feeling like a tripel, but then gets into a sweeter, English barleywine mode, and finally delivers a just a kiss of American hops in the finish.

Complex beer with multiple facets. The sweet sugars ultimately dominate, but I find myself getting more and more complex notes each time I pick it up. Alcohol burn is less than expected.
