Bottle: Deep cola, moderate frothy sandy head, nice lacing. Spicy nose, candied walnuts and cardemum, minor clove. Has a sort of allspice flair. Similar on the tongue, not too heavy. Has a sweet earthy and and bark type background. Its very shrubby, almost juniper. Moderate body and mouthfeel. Lingering woodsy like spices.

Tallahassee, Fl - New Leaf Market - 750 ml bottle. Pours a dark chestnut brown with a long lasting, bubbly off-white head; brief lacing. Pleasant, spicy aroma with hints of ginger, anise seed, a bit of sweet molasses. Flavor is mellow but full bodied. Some mild chocolate notes, a hint of cinnamon, a bit of a ginger bite in the back end. Reminds me a bit of a Christmas cookie. would make a great session ale. Thick, smooth mouthfeel.

750 ml bottle brought back by bsuedekum- thanks, Blake! Pours a mostly clear amber with a small off-white head. Tons of spices in the aroma- ginger, cardamom, chamomile, and cinnamon stand out the most- along with toasted malts, nuts, and brown sugar. Flavor of muddled spices, with the same standouts as the nose, sugar, caramel malts, potpourri, and soap. Ligh-medium body, medium carbonation, and a muddled, spicy mouthfeel. Not bad.
