Samuel Smiths Winter Welcome Ale

clear. looks like a dark BMC with some white head. very candyish aroma. dried fruit medley. pretty heavy palate. malt dominated. mild spices deep in finish. english hops close out the sip nicely. spices are lingering and annoying now. goes well with food.

brown bottle(bout fringin time)servid in english pint.pour a deep copper red with small soapy off white head.aroma of a nice sweet caramal malt and suttle hops(fuggales probaly).taste is sweet refreshing somewhat hoppy and inviting.light-medium body.finsh is slighty metalish but some how goes good(don’t know how).overall I like it, tastes more like a E.S.B than an english strong ale, but somewere inbetween I guess....don’t know why it has this low of a overall

This tastes unlike anything I can remember drinking before. Strong aroma and flavors of spice, with heavy malts. Caramel and hops finish this beer. Pretty exciting, but I don’t believe I could drink more than one at a sitting.

Pours a hazy amber color with white head. Aroma is of light malts some spices. Spicey light malt taste. Something just tastes a little off with this one.

Hazy amber, small head. Aroma is malt, with hints of spice. Flavor is malt, a hint of caramel and wet earth. Hops in the finish.

Aroma of spice, nuts, fruit, citrus, and grains. Pours a clear amber, lots of carbonation bubbles visible and forms a thick white head that is lasts. Thin taste of malt. Palate is smooth with moderate carbonation detectable. This beer goes down easy but could use more flavor.

Bottle (500ml) Clear copper with medium head. Aroma is a ton of caramel, plum, hop and yeast. Taste is nutty, less caramel than the aroma, tart and a bitter aftertaste.
