COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Cask; Seasonal - Winter. Also available brewery conditioned and cold filtered in 500ml bottles.
A deep ruby red strong ale with an excellent balance of malt sweetness and hop bitterness. A classic example of a ’winter warmer’; high in alcohol and rich in taste.

Dark brown colour. Aroma of christmas spices. Taste of dark malt, slight caramel and coffee. One of the better beers from St. Peters

Very dark brown with red glow and creamy beiger head. Soft-bodied beer with nice malts and some hops. Easy drinkable. Doesn’t remind of most dutch or belgian winter beers. It;s more similar to a Samuel Smiths Oatmeal Stout or something in that direction.

Bottle. Pours dark brown reddish with a tanned head. Spicey aroma of caramel, nuts and coffee malts. Flavour is again some burnt caramel, toffee and coffee. Wel balanced, easy drinkable, but too much flavour for a pint sized bottle in my humble opinion.

Bottle pour. Aroma is slight caramel and dark fruits. Pour is black with an off-white head. Flavor is light cherry, some molasses, light chocolate and caramel malts. The finish has a nutty character to it and a slightly bitter aftertaste. Very warming and the alcohol is masked quite well. One of the better winter seasonals I’ve had.

Caramel and booze on the nose. Black pour with thin head. Flavor was almost a perfect example if the style... Like a light stout. A little watery though

Reddish dark brown pour. Aromas heavy with dark chocolate and coffee, mild vanilla. Medium body. Deep chocolate and malty caramel flavours. It’s not complex but the alcohol is hidden nicely. Not complex but simple and done right. Good drink. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

geord (5) - Ontario, CANADA - DEC 26, 2011 does not count
Very dark brown in colour, with a malty aroma. Also notes of chocolate, caramel and spices. Alcohol content is high but it doesn’t have a strong alcohol flavour or finish which is very nice on the palate. A slightly sweet finish accented by the chocolate and caramel. Overall a very nice Seasonal ale best on a cold night by the fire.
