Dec 18, 2007 On tap at The Old Toad in Rochester. Appearance: Chocolate/red/brown, off white head. Aroma: Cherry, chestnut and caramel. Palate: Medium. Flavor: Roasted malts, cherry, caramel, cinnamon, nutmeg, chestnut. Lots of different tastes come out as the beer sits. Overall: Awesome holiday beer. Very complex taste. Warming. It’s sweet and easy drinking, but not too sweet.

Dec 6, 2007 From Growler purchased at BotW. Dark brown with red shading, foamy white head. Smells, and ultimately tastes, like chocolate-covered cherries. It’s a sweet beer, not cloying, but definitely a glass of dessert. The downside is the body, which is a bit watery. This isn’t the hefty, warming winter brew that it should be.

Nov 25, 2007 Copper, thinnish white head. Nose is coppery malt, dark fruits especially plum. Flavor is caramel, bubblegum, malt, cocoa. Nice but the gum is slightly offputting

Dec 9, 2006 Amber. Aroma is spiced and attractive. Flavor is unknown, but a delicate mix of holiday scents and flavors. Nice winter all.
