Do you like Cascade hops? Then this beer will leave you needing a new pair of underpants.

I’ve been drinking a batch from Winter 2000, and it’s pretty good. Why would anyone want to drink an IPA in the winter, tho? Hoppy.

Yuck. Maybe I got a bad six-pack or something, but this tasted like a beer poured over a christmas tree. I will have to try this one again this year. Looks like I am an exception to the rule on this beer.

I’ve had this for 7 years in a row. I feel it has lost it’s punch since about 1999. Still excellent, just diminished somewhat.

UPDATED: OCT 23, 2004 Good enough for me to want it to be winter all year round. Great balance of hops, very strong, yet still very drinkable. Love to smell it as I'm pouring it. The best winter ale around.

UPDATED: DEC 18, 2009 Copper-amber with a nice head, wonderful lace. Rich malts, rich hops. This beer is a classic. Spicy, juicy and flavorful. Great "winter" IPA.
