On Tap. This is another beer that seriously suffers from being bottled. It has a thin white head. Sweet aroma of cherry and oranges. Flavor is rather sweet as well, and can be overpoweringly alcoholic. After drinking about ten glasses of this throughout the winter season, I have had my fill until next year.

Jan 7, 2009 On tap at mugs in Brooklyn. Malt aroma with light amounts of medicine. Clear orange color with no head. Fruity malt taste in the beginning with a sweet thicker finish.

Jan 7, 2009 bottle poured a red orange color with a one finger white head. aroma has sweet malt, cherry, candy fruit, and some spice. flavor is sweet, maraschino cherry, shirley temple, spices, and fruit cake. I will say i would not have guessed this had 11%, warming, and unique.

Jan 5, 2009 On tap at McLeary’s in Marrietta, PA. I’ll be darned if I can pigeon-hole this beer - almots a Belgian dubble, almost a pale ale. Maybe more like a Christmas fruitcake in a glass. And, like that fruitcake, I stopped at one.

Jan 4, 2009 Had on tap. Poured into a snifter. Appearance was orange/red. Had a hard time getting much of an aroma on it, but it could have been because the beer was served a little too cold. Taste of cherries, sour fruits and some spicy sugar. Alcohol started to come forward as the beer warmed up.
