Would of liked to see something bigger here. jcwattsrugger (5258), Florida and, New Jersey, USA

Aroma is mild medium malt-toffee. Later as it warms, some fruit too. Tast is medium malt-toffee, secondary earthy hops. Towards medium body. Thanks to Joe-jwc215 for picking this out.

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 14/20 | Feb 6, 2009 cask at Mahars. Pours dark brown with a small head. Flavor was watery even for a cask beer. Nothing good stands out here, just a below average session beer. arventresca (338), Greenville, North Carolina, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Feb 3, 2009 Bottle. Dark brown with white head. Very similar to other winters I have had, though a little weaker in strenght and taste. I would consider it a winter light beer. BiddleBrau (323), Midland Park, New Jersey, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jan 25, 2009 Dark brown with nice off-white head. Malty nose. Rich and malty, full bodied. Still surprised it’s only 4.5% given the fullness of this brew. On tap at Dive 96 in NYC fredandboboflo (1404), East Setauket, New York, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 27, 2008 Bottle. Aroma of pepper and malty tones, earthiness, nuts, brown sugar. Flavor the same, never noteworthy in any area, nor in their combination. Medium bodied. Nothing exciting here. LilBeerDoctor (1493), East Setauket, New York, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 22, 2008 Bottle. Pours a clear brown with a very small ring of tan head. Aroma of general spices (peppery?) and sweet malt. Flavor of an amber ale with spiced caramel malt. Definite spicy/peppery notes. Spicy burn in the finish. This is an ok beer, but nothing I would seek out again. More like a S/H/V than an amber ale. Decent. zach8270 (2087), Henrietta, New York, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 14, 2008 [bottle - 12 oz] Amber color with a soapy tan head and decent lacing. Aroma is malty with some spices including gingerbread, cinnamon, and some brown sugar. Taste begins sweet with some sugar and dark malts but then goes to a slightly hoppy middle and a lightly spiced finish. Warms on the way down.
