Dec 26, 2008 12.26.08. dimpled mug. malt and roasty to the nose. dark color, very thin off white head. mostly malt flavor, hint of nice. nothing too special. alcohol percentage is a plus, and the fact that i cannot get in florida is a bonus, but still nothing to write home about. all in all an average beer.

Dec 20, 2008 Pours brown with thin tan head. Aroma of spice and dark fruits. Taste of caramel, malt and spices. Decent winter brew.

Dec 17, 2008 Bottle at home. Nice, simple Christmas brew. Pours a very dark brown with a minimal tan head. Aroma is mostly hops. Flavour is not very complex, more hops and some roasted malt plus coffee. Nothing amazing but solid.

Dec 17, 2008 Bottle shared by emacgee. Thanks Ethan. Pours a slightly translucent brown amber with no head. Nose of grains and crappy BMC. Flavor is heavy BMC and metal. This is bad.

Dec 16, 2008 Pours dark brown with a tan head. Aromas of coffee, some spice, fruit, bittersweet in the mouth, creamy, coats the mouth, medium-length sweet finish with some cinnamon. Pleasant drinker.

Dec 16, 2008 Like the Bridgeport version of this style, but with even less malt and with even less body. A forgettable Christmas ale.

Dec 15, 2008 tap at Trappeze in Athens.
Pours a ruby - amber with off white head.
Aroma is malty, dark fruits - cherries and prunes - and caramel.
Taste sweet spices, dark fruits and a really smooth mouthfeel giving it a toffee - malty with notes of chocolate.
Spices remain in the background with light notes of cinnamon. Finish had a somewhat red wine mouthfeel.
