clear amber, wispy white head, streaks of lace, sweet caramel malt aroma with spicy hops and a touch of pine, sweet malt flavor, nice caramel balanced with spicy hops, lots of spicy character but from hops instead of spices, lingering sweetness with a nice low bitterness,

Nov 24, 2000 I have not had this in years, but i remember it to be quite earthy and spicy, maybe with notes of juniper.

Jan 11, 2003 Medium off-white head, with lots of particles distributed throughout the orange body. Nice lacing rings left as the beer is consumed. Aroma is both grapefruit and floral hoppy. Flavor is pleasant piney hops, some grapefruit, and rounded off well by decent malts. Fairly dry finish. Bitterness lingers nicely.

Dec 24, 2004 Poured a medium, hazy amber color with a large (4.5 finger) off white head. Hoppy/grapefruit aroma with light caramel malts. Grapefruit also comes through strong in the taste. Light malty sweet balance. This was not what I was expecting from a Winter Beer (but I’m not complaining). Body is a little thin.

Nov 25, 2007 12oz bottle-pours a light tan head and amber color. Aroma is sweet caramel medium malt, some fruit, hint of hops, which get to secondary after it settles. Taste is sweet medium malt, nice secondary pine hops bitterness. Medium body beer. A hoppy solid beer just short of a strong ale. OK carbonation. Nice, easy drinking.

Oct 5, 2006 Draft... GABF ’06... Clear yellow ale with a small, frothy, white head. Tastes and smells more like a Summer IPA than a Winter Warmer. Reminiscent of Alesmith’s Yulesmith Summer release. Pungent and perfume notes in the aroma with a warm, melted gob of caramel. Loads of PNW hops in the flavor; decent balance though. Almost full-bodied and creamy with moderate carbonation. Balanced, dry finish.

Dec 3, 2003 Pours a clear copper with a puffy white head. Very fresh hoppy aroma with caramel malty grapefruit undertones. Almost smells like gasoline. Body is lightly swet and mellow with plenty of hops everywhere you look. Dry sticky finish. A good English strong ale.
