Oct 27, 2008 Bottle. Aroma...slightly sweet, a bit of citrus. Slight spiciness, but not a whole lot. Flavor is a little roasty. Nice and warm, with a citrus afterthought. Slight spice notes. Clove, allspice, and a dash of cinnamon, I think. Overall, Very solid.

Oct 27, 2008 Bottle. Pours deep red/brown color with a medium head that lasts a couple minutes. Smells of rich maltsand very faint roasty aroma. Tastes nutty, carmelly, roasty, sweet with a slight hint of some seasoning. Good beer overall.

Oct 26, 2008 Bottle into pint glass. Pours a dark brown, yet clear with a think head. Smells of spices and sugar. Tastes like caramel. Would be great with a piece of apple pie.

Oct 26, 2008 Pours a dark clear brown with a thick white head. Aroma of caramel and spices: cinnamon, clove, some wheat, etc and so forth. Flavor has a bunch of spice with burnt caramel sugar. Finishes kind of spicey with some hop. My favorite Sam Adams seasonal by a landslide.

Oct 24, 2008 The nutmeg really blends well with the wheat aroma without overwhelming it. Sam’s Winter Lager pours with just-right carbonation and plenty of lacing and head retention. The flavor is very clean with subdued wheat and noble hop flavors. The spice lingers in the finish, detracting somewhat from the palate. The mouthfeel is just right. Overall a well-brewed weizenbock which just lacks the complexity and depth of its German counterparts.

Oct 24, 2008 Updated: Nov 19, 2008Pours a bronze/brown with an orange tint. Thick, white head. Smells super malty. Tastes of a bit of clove and wheat, mostly caramel malt, a bit vinous. No hops to speak of. Adequate carbonation- something that BBC always seems to get perfectly right. Very good stuff, here. Try it out.

Oct 24, 2008 16 oz draft poured a nut brown with an off white head. Alot of spice in the aroma. Some caramel in the body and nutmeg. A bit syrupy for my liking, but a n ice beer to move us into winter.

Oct 21, 2008 Clear copper red color with a thin off white head. Slight nutty aroma, harsh metallic plums, bready but weak overall. Body is spicy, caramel and cinnamon sweet, amber malts and an even hop and spice finish.
