Mar 21, 2008 12oz. brown bottle served in a shaker pint glass. Poured a deep brown with less than a finger of white head. Deep malty aroma, molasses and caramelized sugar. Rich malty flavor and mouthfeel. Plenty of caramel malt. Not a lot of hop bitterness, but enough to balance out the malt sweetness. Very easy drinking, solid beer.

does not count  Mar 21, 2008 My favorite of the strong ales. Buy up enough in November to last until it comes out again.....

Mar 18, 2008 A good winter brew. Dark in color with a somewhat bitter brown sugary body. Warms the insides. I like Summit, and this is their best seasonal in my mind.

Mar 9, 2008 Clear dark red, little head. Heavy fruit and medium crystal malt aroma. Nice soft large body. Extremely lacking in flavor. Just a bit of caramel and spice.
