Round, fruity IPA with passion fruit and other pine on the tongue. Fairly noticeable alcohol pokes through as it goes down, but fruity enough to balance it out.
Smoothed out, mild roasted flavor, more like an oatmeal porter than a brown. There's a murky undercurrent to the yeast, like wet tobacco ash - very light, but interacts with the dry nature of the beer to make for an unpleasantish experience.
Sweet toasted barley, drinks very smooth. Almost (literally) buttery - diacetyls usually don't register for me, but? Jasmine is there as a perfumey overtone but is not super-explicit.
