Nov 11, 2009 Pours amber with a light tan head. Aroma is earthy hops with a touch of caramel in the background. Flavor is a nice balance of caramel malt and earthy, spicy, slightly citrusy hop with a nice bitter finish. Pretty good.

Nov 8, 2009 Received a 12-oz bottle via trade with kmweaver. Pours a semi-hazy reddish amber with a thin off-white film coating on top. Aroma of caramel, roasted nuts, citrus and a hint of vegetable. Taste is medium bodied, light carbonated, flavors of caramel malt, some vanilla and citrus. Finish is semi-sweet with a caramel and yeast aftertaste that slowly disappears.

Nov 8, 2009 Pours deep amber into an English pint. Off-white conglomerate head with excellent retention leaves spotted sheets as it slowly recedes. Orange citrus aromas. Syrupy yet dry upfront with yeast and caramel. Lasting bitter finish.

Nov 5, 2009 Nice aroma has a bit of earthy hops with hints of dry leaves. Flavor is not super complex malt up front with the hoppy finish. Not bad.

Nov 5, 2009 Bottle as part of a tasting at Catskeller. Pours clear amber with a small beige head. Aroma of sweet caramel malts, toast, and hops with some booziness. Warming alcohol, bitter hops, and sweet caramel malts make up the flavor of this beer, which has nice balance. Light bodied, and lives up to its "warmer" title. Still, the aroma didn’t do a whole lot and I wasn’t crazy about the taste of this one.

Nov 4, 2009 Cask at Churchkey. Cloudy amber with chunks and floaties, medium light tan bubbles, just around the edge of the glass. Aroma of bread and caramel. Nicely hopped but with a good malt balance. Taste has a few splinters of oak, very subtle. Longish bitter finish. Nice enough.

Nov 1, 2009 A truly excellent looking beer in the glass: dark amber color, dense white head. Matched with the malted hops aroma a had high hopes for this beer well before the first sip. The taste was remarkable, full bodies and complex, but not overly dry or bitter. In fact it reminded me a little of fine cognac. at the end I was ready to lick out the glass. Cheers.
