22oz bottle from Bevmo Carmel Mountain. Poured a medium amber color with a nice ruby hue. Head was big, rocky, and left great lacing. Big nose of floral hops with some sweet malt in the backdrop.

Aug 28, 2008 Pours a nice red color with an off white head. Aroma is of nice citrusy hops followed by sweet malts and a tad of alcohol. Flavor is just so smooth. Porbably one of the best mixtures of hops and malts in an ASA that iv’ve ever had. I liked this better than the summer one.

Aug 23, 2008 22oz bottle. Lovely copper red color with a huge foamy head. Great balance of big hops and malt flavors. Has a subtle sweetness of caramel and fruits. This would be awesome to drink during the cold months of the holiday season.

Aug 15, 2008 Since I am missing a local brewfest tonight I decided to break out a good one from my cellar. Nice looking reddish stuff with thick homebrew head , massive lacing that tells a history, and thickest residue I’ve seen at that. Malty, sweet (think sugar babies) plus pine forest all at once in the nose. Nice indeed. I am now enjoying the malty yet hoppy palate. Can only imagine the power of the summer version cause this stuff packs a kick. Very nice!

Aug 12, 2008 [1506-20080704] 1pt6floz bottle. Spicy pine resin aroma with dark heavy wood malt notes. Murky, dark brown amber body with a long-lasting foamy almond head and big white floaties. Spicy pine resin continues in the flavour with lots of heavy hops. Medium-full body. Interesting and fragrant!

Aug 11, 2008 Bottle: Glowing orange pour with a wispy white head that thinly covers the brew. Freshly-squeezed citrus flavor, very cleanly hopped. Velvety mouthfeel, only about medium-bitterness, but still manages a very full flavor. Delicious.
