Commercial Description:
Never Summer Ale is a bold new look at winter beers: gutsy, full-bodied and an aggressive fusion of secret spices. Like the first run of the day, this ale is deep and clean, crisp and drinkable, perfectly blended for a smooth ride...through the Looking Glass. Grains: British Dark Caramel Malt, U.S. 2-row Barley. Hops: Nugget, Willamette, Cascade and Top-Secret Brewmaster's Spice.

Pours a hazy orange amber color with thin white head. Aroma of bourbon and light fruit. Pretty smooth with a lot of apple and bourbon flavor. Tasted kind of like a mix of whiskey and apple cider but in a good way.

Pours clear, deep amberwith a tall, long lasting off-white head. Malty spicy aroma. Malt based flavor profile with some spicy dryness that comes in at the finish. Smooth but a bit thin. Not bad overall.
