2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Dark brown with a minor beige head (that persists for a while). Smokey, roasted malt nose...maybe a little fresh baked bread, but all scents are far from overpowering. Smooth and creamy start before carbonation takes over. Disappointingly, not as much flavor as I expected. Slightly bitter roasted grain taste which slowly fades.
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
355ml bottle. Pours a dark orange brown with a large head. Aroma is smoked bacon, leather and a little spicy. Taste has a spicy leather start, with some mild smoked bacon on the finish.
4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Draft. Creay head that had nice retention, off white/tan. Nice rasion aroma with a slight malt backing. Very soft medium body beer. Malt forward, slight malt sweetness with a hint of caramel. Excellent beer. Nice mild winter seasonal.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Clear dark amber pour with long-lasting bubbly white head. Malty aroma of biscuit with some toffee and fruit notes. Taste is in line with the aroma, some caramel and fruit with a mild rye spice on the finish. Pretty straightforward malty winter ale, but the rye notes add a little interest. Enjoyable, but nothing special.

This beer was horrible. I bought a 6 pack ~ $11.00. I tasted the beer and instantly I was repulsed. The taste reminded me of coffee that was burned from sitting on the heat too long with a twist of black licorice & pine. I would also suggest that you do not drink it while serving pizza. It did not go well at all. I would never buy this again and I am going to try give these away to my friends that drink Busch. I think they would appreciate it’s rotten flavor because of the pricetag.
3.5 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 10/20
Caramel, brown sugar and toffee tastes, with hints of dark fruit. This is a nice winter warmer beer.
