On tap at Fell’s Point (2/13/09): Pours a transparent amber mahogany with a stringy-lacing white head. Aroma of lightly sweet toasty caramel and nutmeg spice. Starts with good fullness and sweet caramel toffee notes well balanced with holiday spices before a clean bittersweet finish. A pretty good spiced beer.

Sampled from a growler. Rusty brown color body with a slight haziness, maybe 15-20% opaque, and a small-forming thin off-white head. At first I got a whiff of strawberries in the nose, but it turned more towards a perfumy, floral munich malt smell after a bit, with lingering notes of the strawberries and maybe some juniper and allspice. Light, perfumy and chewy, that’s basically this beer in three words, and maybe the fourth word could be spicy, but it’s pretty tame. Finishes with some grain husk flavors, and again very light general/allspice flavors.

A dark reddish copper ale with a very thin white head. A nice caramel aroma with nice bananas and cloves, In mouth, a surprising mix of caramel and coconut, a bit cloying and oily. Medium bodied. On tap at Duclaw Baltimore, Dec. 29 2008.

Growler. Poured a mostly clear amber color with an off-white head. The aroma was of light spice, milk chocolate and sweet fruit. The flavor was malty with a mild sweetness. Light spice on the semi-dry finish.

tap at Fells Pt location. Reminded me of a pumpkin lager I guess. Pours a clear deep copper-amber with a thin lasting head. Aroma is spicy nutmeg, cinnamon, all spice- pumpkin like but a bit skewed to a Christmas ale- a hint of ginger and pine needle- ok sweet toasty and light caramel malt backbone. Flavor is sweet caramel malts, toasty Vienna and Munich- slightly bready, and a nice not-too-intense spice kick throughout- cardamon, cinnamon, nutmeg allspice, etc. Ok nice smooth finish and pretty easy to drink.

Growled. Pours without much fanfare. grains and pumpkin spice to go along with a decent amount of sweetness. I like it.
