Color is a deep clear amber with a tight off white head. Aroma is sweet with roasted malt and caramel. It has a medium body with a smooth almost creamy mouthfeel. Flavor is rich with toffee and mild biscuit backed by a easy bitterness. Aftertaste somehow seems clean yet the sweet toffee from the Munich hangs on. Overall it's much more drinkable then I thought it would be for this much Munich, though I think it would be better with about half as much.
