Review

        Faint sweet nose.  Bubble burn lead, then burnt sugar.  Mmm.  Sweet, slightly chalky mid-range, with something a bit like a ginger snap popping up.  Odd aftertaste, feels like a couple of things are fighting for supremacy in the taste, with the slightly chalky thing winning.  Decent burps.
