Dec 5, 2007 Pours an amber color with an off-white head. Aroma is of citrus hops, caramel malts, and some spices. Flavor is the same with not much of a lingering flavor. Almost seems to be lacking something on the finish. I was not really impressed with this brew.

Dec 1, 2007 Ruby red color, nice rocky head. Good lacing. Aroma is subtle malty sweetness w/ hint of roasted malt. Good mouthfeel. Roasted malt. Like a good amber but a little more spicy. Finishes clean.

Nov 30, 2007 Pretty good beer with an interesting finish. Must be the secret spice. Malty nose, and a decent mouthfeel with an abundance of hops. Caramel notes in the malt. Very good.

Nov 30, 2007 Deep copper going toward ruby/brown with frothy 2-finger off-white head. Aroma of caramel malt, nutmeg, toffee, nuts, mild cabernet, like a spicy ESB. Tastes caramel malty, with spice, dry noble hops, soke cabernet notes. This one comes across like a spiced nut brown or ESB ale, with more noble hops and spices.

Nov 29, 2007 Hoppy nose. Red color, white head. Overtly bitter. One dimensional caramel/bitter flavor that doesn’t last. Some pine in the finish means it’s Christmas.

Nov 27, 2007 Bottle. Mild nose, some piney hops with a bit of citrus. Dark red, thick but clear with a thin white head. Strong bitterness, good balance but no depth. No notable "winter" flavors, maybe a touch of spice in the finish. Good palate, slightly thick but crisp and refreshing.
