Notes:

This beer turned out very well. Aroma has a small amount of grass/hay type hoppiness, with rich honey and caramel notes. Also a bit of fruity fermentation character, not super estery but very subtle, (raisins, red apple.) Flavor is deep rich maltiness, some more fruity fermentation character, and a bit of cocoa. Body is light but with enough mouth feel to keep it interesting, definitely not thin. Will definitely brew this again.
