• Taste: The taste of The Knights Who Say Wee follows the nose with malty, sweet, roasty, and toasty flavors.  There are notes of dark roasted malts, hearty barley, sweet caramel, burnt toffee, and a hint of bourbon.
• Mouthfeel: Medium to full-bodied with moderate carbonation, the mouthfeel of The Knights Who Say Wee is thick and smooth, yet crisp with a dry and somewhat sweet and boozy finish.

Overall pairing: "Oh, what sad times are these when passing ruffians can say `Ni' at will to old ladies. There is a pestilence upon this land, nothing is sacred. Even those who arrange and design shrubberies are under considerable economic stress at this period in history."
