(Draught) Sampled on November 23rd, 2006 at the brewpub. She’s back! A frothy head and a deep orange body. Nose of caramel and little else; yet the flavour is wildly complex: vanilla, allspice, pumpkin and an old rotten apple. An interesting mix with good complexity.

Oakes (10184) - Gibsons, British Columbia, CANADA - DEC 24, 2006
Gotta be the same as the Old Blitzen...I’ll sort that out later. Slightly hazy dark amber. Somewhat candyish, orangey aroma wit underlying malts hinting at caramel and chocolate. Sweet, buttery texture with delicate hints of mace and cinnamon. There’s a fair bit of caramelly malt.

This one was a tough one. It had such a mixture of flavors it was hard to isolate them. Cloudy brown color with off white head. Lightly spiced citrus and carmel nose. Flavor initially was citrus (lime) and changed to spice (cinnamon) with a hint of raisins. Nothing but cranberries and cinnamon? hmmm
