Bottle as shown. Pours a dark amber color with a small frothy off white head. The aroma is a sweet hop and nuts. Decent lacing on the glass. The taste is a sweet fruit, apple with a dry finish. Very drinkable and hides the alcohol well. A very good English Strong Ale from Avery.

Pours the color of maple syrup from the bottle with a silky reddish/tan head. Brimming with the aroma of blueberries, raspberries, molasses, and hops. Starts out malty, with a medium body, but builds into a piney alcohol finish that almost sets your mouth on fire. Very impressive.

Let the doors of Christmas open up, wow. Pours a dark amber with a nice head that recedes quickly. It smells of Christmas spices and caramel. On first taste it is also quick spicy. The spices never quick leave your lips or palate. It is also quite easy to pick up both the aroma and flavor of nuts and toffee. As I said the spice sticks on your palate for a nice warming feel. A very good seasonal.

A deep, dark, red/orange with a dense, long lasting foam. Minerally/metallic aroma with no hops and low malt. A very viscous and full bodied mouthfeel. The flavor is very malty with a subdued hop presence. A typical winter warmer and not a whole lot of personality

Burnt caramel and molasses nose. Brown orange color with soapy head. Chewy sweet malt with just the right amount of bitterness providing great balance. Full carbonation, full body, dark caramel finish with a slow warming alcohol burn. Really one of the better winter style beers out...just a great brew!
