JoeMcPhee (3899), Jackson Heights, New York, USA May 31, 2008 Thanks to goldtwins for sharing this. Pale amber-red beer, thin white head. Aroma is a little bit boozy. Lightly nutty and a little bit sweet. Lightly chewy with a bit of orange peel and caramel. Softly sweet. Lingering caramelly candyish flavour. Meh, it’s okay. goldtwins (3747), Nesconset, New York, USA Jul 2, 2008 Poured a lightly hazed amber color with a small beige head. Light caramel malt aroma with notes of spice, esters and alcohol. The flavor was sweet and malty again with some spice and light alcohol. ratman197 (2482), Arvada, Colorado, USA Jul 31, 2005 Bottle pored brown with a tan head. Aromas of licorice, figs, and spices. Palate is on the heavy side but acceptable in a winter ale. Flavors of nuts, figs, raisens, and spices with a bitter finish. bb (2236), Martinez, California, USA Dec 21, 2004 Draft. Amber color with an off-white head. Sweet malt aroma and flavors. A bit of vanilla. Fairly clean and easy to drink, but not outstanding. jazz88 (2209), San Francisco, California, USA Mar 2, 2003 Tap @ Toronado Barley Wine Festival. Amber color with a tan head. Lots of hops in the nose.
