Insinuating oak-aged Scotch ale confection contrasts mellow oaken vanilla warmth against sharp 7.4% alcohol-whirred dark rum spicing and sweet whiskey temperance. Muted Merlot-brandy wining flutters by tobacco-roasted earthen-grained tea-like crisping, amiable butterscotch-caramel sweetness, subtle chestnut-pecan wisp and ripe grape nuances.
