3.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
12 oz bottle. Aroma is cinnamon, grain, caramel. Pours reddish brown with a medium beige head that collapses into a blanket of foam after a couple minutes. Taste is sweet and sour with a pronounced cinnamon flavor. Carbonation is average and the mouthfeel is creamy. As far as spiced beers go, it’s not as good as the Widmer Spiced IPA I rated last night, but this isn’t bad. A nice beer to say goodbye to winter.

dark amber color, aroma of strong cinnamon, toffee, caramel, flavor of cinnamon, toffee, caramel, roasted malt, taste like cinnamon sugar cookies, light bodied, I would say the best coors/miller has to offer

The beer pours a reddish-amber ale with a white head. The aroma brings me back to Christmas. I smell something that strongly resembles Snickerdoodle cookies, with a ton of cinnamon and sugar notes. I also get a little bit of toffee. The flavor definitely follows suit. I get some cinnamon and sugar, as well as some caramel and ginger. There is also some brown sugar in the flavor. Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation. A very nice spiced beer.

The other day, I was sitting around wondering what I would do if I ever got really bored. And do you know what I came up with? I would chew on cinnamon sticks. Who doesn’t love doing that? But then I thought to myself, why not combine to the two things I love most? Cinnamon and beer? I guess Blue Moon Brewing Co beat me to it first. Damn it, Blue Moon... Why can’t I be the genius for once? I’m bored. Where are my cinnamon sticks?

Bottle. Clear amber pour with minimal head. Cinnamon and apples all over the nose and taste. Pretty solid!
2.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Before I read the label I thought there might be some peppermint in here, turns out it’s cinnamon and caramel. A little too much winter cheer for me.

Looks like your average amber, but tastes rather odd with the spices. Not totally undrinkable, but I wouldn’t recommend it.

Bottle from Kroger, though one from drowland has shown up at my house tonight as I drink it. I could thank Danny, but I won’t. Brown pour with a small off-white head. Aroma is gingerbread men dipped in sweet pancake syrup. Taste is bitter, still sweet, sugary, caramel, and still more sweet.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
This is the best showing from Blue Moon yet.
The spiced notes blend into the pallet, leaving a satisfied finished.
