A very good beer. It has a smooth spicy flaver that warms you up after a hard day skiing.

(from December 2008): 12oz bottle from the local Shaw’s. Pours a translucent dark copper color with a good half inch of off-white head. Smells fruity, spicy, hoppy, malty, caramel/toffee... Tastes fruity, with cinnamon, nutmeg, orange zest, nut, toffee, caramel, just a tinge of butter... A wide plethora of flavors with the malt and hops both playing huge roles. Medium bodied with moderate carbonation combines with the pleasant flavors to make this one super-drinkable. A new favorite winter beer!

Pours a dark amber color and produced little to no head. Has a great aroma and was a very flavorful winter ale

Very nice. The complexity of the flavors in this beer are quite satisfying. Dark and smooth it is a great beer for a cold winter’s night.
