beerguy717 (17), , USA Dec 11, 2003 Can you tell "I Love This Stuff," Awesome body with great maltiness and just the right hint of hops. This one warms your cockles. MAP (910), Lakewood, Ohio, USA Mar 7, 2005 Dark red almost brown body with no real head on top. Aroma is clean, chocolatey, caramel, plum and spice. Taste is one heck of a ride. It gets you wit some sweetness at first, plum, cherry and grape, then some earth roasted pete notes. Next you’re treated to a chocolatey warmth and and then it closes full circle with more of the fruity sweetness. Palate is delicate at first, then it hits with a notch of bitterness, then calms down in the end. This is one hell of a good winter beer. I wish I had picked up a sixer of these instead of a single. JamesHellican (10), USA Nov 17, 2006 Poured a nice head, Nice Aroma, Nice Color. It wasn’t spiked with spices, which was nice. It tastes like three beers in one, a lambic sweet start, a stoudt body and a porter finish. Long finish. I’ve had the Lancaster Milk Stoudt, and has that ’Lancaster’ Taste. DocLock (4175), Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA Jan 28, 2005 This is an excellent WW. Ruby pour, with aroma of malt, toffee, caramel, fruit, and yes, tobacco. The aroma reminds me of Stoudt’s Fest. Tastes very complex, with hops, fruit (cherries, berries), oak, spice, pipe tobacco, and a warming finish. Just awesome. obxdude10 (1403), Reading, Pennsylvania, USA Jan 25, 2004 Very excellent winter beer, amber in color, thin white head, malty nose, rasin & dates in the flavors along with a boatload of malt, very smooth & drinkable, smooth & sweet malty finish
