raiderfost (158), virginia beach, Virginia, USA Dec 5, 2007 Not bad . Pours a amber color with a thick foamy head. Not very much spice fro a winter brew. Would not buy again but not offensive. kitschy (197), Nebraska, USA Dec 3, 2007 tasted at crescent moon winter beer tasting. clear amber with white poofy head. no body to speak of, and a blah kind of flavor. somewhat sweet with a finish that is bitter in a not-good kind of way. Tranquillity (1165), Espoo, Finland Dec 2, 2007 Dark red/brown, with a small white head. Aroma of honey and hops, hard to identify with the flu going around. Taste bitter, liqurice, good malty finish. ilovedarkbeer (1326), Dallas, Texas, USA Dec 1, 2007 Pretty much sucks. Pours a weird orange honey color with a small tan fizzy head. Tastes like malt and some spicy bite. Very unbalanced and just offensive to the palate and taste buds. Weak.... I expect more from you Sam Smith. My girlfriend even said this beer is all nose and no taste. Allen (1287), Switzerland Dec 1, 2007 Bottled 55cl. It pours a light amber beer with a slightly tanned head. The nose is of caramel, nuts mango and wood. Some lemon. Very sweet with hints of seawater. The taste is slightly salty. Lots of caramel. Leafy taste of peaches, eucalyptus, wood and floral hops. A decent amount of bitterness. Malty, toasty with lots of marmelade-like elements. Good lacing. Hints of peanuts. The finish is dry and toasty with hints of peanuts and peaches. JDUB (170), Beautiful Venice Beach, California, USA Nov 29, 2007 very enticing orange reddish hue with a lacing and lasting white head. With a facade comparable to a ripe west coast IPA, the aroma and flavor threw a curve at me. The nose has strong cheesy funkiness and the flavor has hints of red licorice. The two don’t go well and aren’t in sync with the appearance. While this has some great qualities, it lacks consistency as the various components are fairly conflicting. badinplaid (103), USA Nov 28, 2007 Bottle...not a bad winter brew. A good hoppy flavor but lacking in the traditional spices. Good flavor worth a try on a cool evening. redgold07 (308), Irving, Texas, USA Nov 28, 2007 Pours a slightly hazy golden-brown color with a substantial white head. Aroma is a little fruity, sweet, and malty. Flavor is slightly alcoholic, sweet, but bitter a little bit, too. Really enjoyed this one. Is that description correct that there is seaweed in this beer?
