This complex, yet drinkable beer is a blend of pale ale and stout.  The aroma is a combination of hop from the pale ale with roasted notes and just a hint of smoke from the stout.  The rounded body of the beer starts with sweetness from the caramel malt in the pale ale and finishes with aggressive roasted fullness of the stout.  The finish is crisp and bitter, but with no astringency.  This perfectly blended beer is the marriage of two excellent individual beers coming together to make one phenomenal brew. 6.3% ABV.
