Notes:

From 12oz bottle. Color is a deep dark amber with light carbonation and a very thin head. Aroma is sweet toffee and roasted malt. It has a heavier medium body with a smooth mouthfeel. Flavor like the aroma is sweet with toffee and toasted biscuit. Aftertaste is Munich malt and a nice bitterness that balances it out. Overall this came out great, just could use a little more carbonation.
