Feb 8, 2009 Poured from 12oz bottle into pint glass.
Appearance - Brownish red with off-white 2 finger head. Good lacing.
Aroma & Flavor - Carmel malt with some faint notes of fruit. Light on the hops.
Palate - Medium mouthfeel. Proper amount of carbonation for the style
Overall - This is one of my favorite styles for session drinking. A good example of an Irish ale. I could drink a few of these!

Feb 2, 2009 12 oz bottle purchased at Woody’s in Nashville. Poured a clear amber color with a one finger off white head. The aroma had notes of smoke, peated malt and even a hint of citrus. The flavor was rather bland and malty, with biscuit and toasted bread dominating. The palate was average with good carbonation, a medium body and a chewy mouthfeel. This was a decent, drinkable beer. Not my favorite though.

Jan 28, 2009 Bottle split with Barrios at woody’s. Hazy orange brown pour with a ring of tan head. Nose of malt, smoke, peat, and some alcohol despite being low alc. Flavor is toasty, biscuit, and acidic. Average blah.

Jan 26, 2009 Nice red-orange with a red tinted tan head. Toasty aroma, slightly metallic, berry or apple fruitiness and caramel. Taste is nicely toasted malt sweetness, bready with a lasting bitter finish.

Jan 22, 2009 12oz bottle with Butters. Pours a light tan head with an amber body. Smells of caramel and light toast. Tastes of caramel and toast. Reminds me a little of caramel corn. Very slight bitterness on the finish.

Jan 21, 2009 Bottle, extra in a trade. Pours a mahogany body with a one finger tan head. Sweet caramel malt, nice floral earthy hop character. Light toasty malt body with a nutty feel as well.

Jan 18, 2009 Not fantastic or anything overly special. Overall a nice drinkable beer that I will keep around as a session beer. Malty, with nice medium hop aroma and very slight grapefruity hop finish on the backend. Pours beautifully, but the head disspiates very fast. To me it is a "Nut Cracker" (BLVD’s winter warmer) Light.

Jan 18, 2009 Reddish copper, thin beige head. Bready, toasty aroma. Flavor is also bready and toast, with hints of cola and maybe a woodsy note, as well. Fairly simple, but tasty.
