Description
A step darker and deeper than GoldSwaen Red, pushing toffee and rich caramel forward with a faint roasted edge underneath. Amber ales, altbier, bocks and darker specialities gain color, fuller body and steadier foam without extra bitterness. Drum-caramelized, so it contributes no diastatic power.
