Strange Brew Festival 2010
Big Al - Wintermint
This reminded me of a brewed junior mint. Mint and chocolate flavor and aromas. Dark in color this was pretty easy to drink and had lots of alcohol in the finish.

On tap at Big Al’s West Seattle. Pours out cloudy brown topped with a small head. Aroma was crazy sweet milk chocolate, mint, and malts. Taste was more of the sweet mint and chocolate. I have had one other mint beer on the X Tap at Deschutes a couple years back that was also not so good. Maybe mint and beer is not a good mix for me.

Hazy medium brown. Minty chocolate, herbal aroma (maybe juniper?). Chocolatey, minty character in a fairly heavy brew. Decent balance. Reminds me of old Winterfish. Minty accent to a sweet, strong, chocolatey brew.
