Tastes more like a brown ale than an english strong ale. Light bodied with no alcohol presence. Pretty flavorful caramel malt taste and decent hop character. Some fruit and spice add some complexity to the taste.

Brown pour with a tall white head. Aroma has lots of fruit and spice. The flavor is full of malt and spice, along with some thick fruit sweetness. Great holiday brew.

Copper color. A dry Ale, with some caramel and toffee flavor, and a good hopping. Too dry to be suitable for winter, but pleasant.

I don’t know what’s "strong" about this. Bottled. Excellent all around taste. Malty and slightly chocolately. Good color and good body. I like it.
