You can smell the higher alcohol content, followed by a sweet aroma. Has a smooth start and crisp finish; good body, nice head (oh crap this sounds like the wrong kind of posting now), good balance of sweat and slight bitter. Not a personal favorite style, but always look forward to having a few during the cold months.
