The taste is crisp and fruity with flavors of roasted biscuits, caramel, dulce de leche, fig, and banana on a soft medium body. The finish is long and moderately bitter and lightly warming, featuring notes of dark chocolate, black coffee, plum, fig, raisin, vanilla, oak, herbal hops, and just a hint of Belgian yeast. Overall this beer is incredible, the levels of complexity and the balance between them is exquisite. This is a must try beer worth the hype and worth hunting down.
