This is roughly three months old, so probably a touch beyond the optimal flavor window. Candied pineapple, orange marmalade, and caramel malt on the nose. Flavors are sweet, almost syrupy citrus, with plenty of background honey and caramel. Mildly fusel alcohol shows up with warmth, and ultimately detracts from the overall flavor. Not sure this would be markedly better when fresh.
