This is a winter ale that stays tue to its beer. dark appearance with a coffee like head. good malty flavorwith some spice. good ingredients well are blended and put together well. not too much of one thing. good job

12 oz, 12007FX (Jan 07?). Clear, copper-dark brown with a medium and lasting creamy head. Aroma of spicy, peppery caramel and sweet dark fruit. Flavor is very interesting: at first like a toasty malty, British nut brown ale with some spices added. Finishes bitterish and dry pine-hoppy with a cocoa-molasses aftertaste. Palate is smooth, medium-bodied, and tingly on the end. Very nice.

bottle. pours a cloudy darm amber, slight tan film on top. aroma is caramel and hints of herbal hops. full-bodied malts, taste of molasses, fruity malts, and a helping of noble hops make the finish not too sweet. not bad, especially for being a bit old (at least 10mo)
