The taste of this beer subtle and not very complex, even though it had a high ABV. It had a sugary sweet flavor that was very noticeable and not very much balance. It had hint flavors of cinnamon and spiced apple. This beer was alright and had easy drink ability, but the sweetness of this beer was a real deal breaker. This beer is just good in small doses.
