Bottle. Pour brown with white head. Nice roasted malt smell. Very pleasant palate. Pretty good for a winter beer. Had some of the ESB taste in it.

Bottle thanks to Drew. Bottle poured to glass. Copper, red with rocky white head. Molasses & biscuit malt aroma with a moderate hops to balance. Creamy mouthfeel. Semi lacing retained small bead around rim through out entire drink.

pours a reddish brown with an aroma of floral hops, woody notes, and malt. Flavor starts sweet with caramel and molasses, goes to a quick bitter stage, then back to more sweetness. Decent palate, quite a nice session beer.

Bottle. Poured a ruby color with a creamy tan head that settles to a ring and had light lacing. Aromas of pine and floral with a toasted malt background. The flavor finds more floral, caramel, spices and some light pine hops. Light to medium body with a medium bitterness.

12 oz bottle. Pours a nice dark red/brown color with a 1/2" off white head. Minimal lacing. Aroma is floral hop with malt. Flavor is sweet at first with a brown sugar like taste. Also a little bit fruity. Hops take over towards the end with a bitter finish. Palate is pretty average. Nice reasonably priced ($7.99 a sixer) winter ale.

Clear reddish brown beer with a short lived khaki head. Dark sugar malt nose with a promising hop presence. Dark caramel sweetness with some burnt grains and a long roasty finish. Light orange peel bitterness . Functional winter seasonal.

Reviewed 1/29/2009 (bottled 12/02/08): Pours a very clear brown colored body, with a small head, off-white in color. Has a hoppy malty sweet aroma. A dusty, light sweet taste. Very light tasting. Not much flavor. Has some hoppiness and bitterness, but not much flavor.
