This is a very nice beer, soft and malty with quite a bit of residual sweetness and a touch of caramel chocolatyness. The hops are used for bittering---I think it would be a mistake to add aroma hops to a beer of this class. I think I prefer other yeasts to this strain, but it was all I could get locally in a hurry.
