Jan 7, 2009 Tap at OTH.
Pours copper with beige head.
Aroma malty with light hops giving it a subtle fruity - orange, citrus nose.
There also was a good nose of hops with light spices and as the beer warmed up it gained a light moldy/cheese like smell.
Taste is hoppy and light roasted malty with notes of caramel. Thick and creamy mouthfeel. with a light bitter finish.

Jan 5, 2009 12oz bottle. Filtered amber brown color with a nice foamy head. Mildly spicy aroma, nutmeg or cinnamon perhaps. Malty, medium bodied with a sweet finish. The hops are there but never really shine because of the other flavors going on. A little unsubtle in spicing, but an OK beer nonetheless.

Jan 5, 2009 Tried on draft. A nice darker ale. Smells and tastes a little sweet with some molasses and maple flavors. Some malty flavor in there as well. A nice, thicker beer that has a clean aftertaste. Worthwhile.

Dec 25, 2008 Bottle from total wine. Amber pour. White head. Interesting aroma. I am guessing by some other reviewers it is the nugget hops. I get honey, sweet wildflowers, spices and citrus. Flavor is pretty darned nice actually. I get hits of orange, honey, coriander and malt. Hops are present but they arent bitter. Sweet and spicy. Pleasant surprise here.
