Commercial Description:
Weyerbacher Winter Ale is brewed with deep-roasted chocolate malt. The taste predominates with a warm, roasty flavor, balanced out with a slightly dry finish. It's smooth but not cloying, with a warming belt of alcohol.

Dark brown in the glass with a thin tan head. No lacing. Smells of caramel malt, clove and nutmeg, hint of cinnamon. Rich caramel malt, sweet spice, hints of toffee. Spices are quite pronounced. Mouth is sweet and sticky. Aftertaste of spice and stickyness. Decent enough winter warmer.

Bottled. A deep red beer with a lazing tan head. The aroma has notes of metal, roasted malt, berries, and alcohol. The flavor is sweet malty with primary notes of berries, leading to a dry and slightly bitter finish. The body is thin. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.

bottle poured into an English pint has a cola brown color and a thin white head that fell quickly. aroma has roasted caramel malt, dark fruit, faint chocolate, and a little cherry cordial. mouth feel is medium light with flat carbonation. flavor has a muddle of caramel and chocolate malt, faint fruit, a little off yeast, and a touch of bitters. finish is flat with a washed out flavor. there is a little mis match of flavors here that is a little off.

Poured a cloudy brown color with an off white head. Aroma is of roasted malts, some fruits? and nuts. Flavor is very malty with some spices hidden within.

Bottle Bangor 08’. Deep ruby brown pour with little head development. Oak, soft choc, and malts. Thin in the finish. I also got this off season at a discount. Not a 20$ case discount like below though.

Very average beer . . . Not a particularly appealing appearance or smell. Tastes a little like chocolate. Would probably be a good winter beer, unfortunately I had it in July.
