Jul 4, 2009 tap for $4 at the rattle and hum nyc. wheaty yet clear in metal taste from the tap that reveals fruit and then good fruit as the beer goes down.orange and sweet with dishwater hops just gets better as you drink it. not an American type ipa by a longshot more refined and suited up. a bit floral more muted in tastes but somewhat layered. refreshing and not bad.

Jun 26, 2009 Pours orange/copper with a nice white head. Smells of citrus, dry malt, resiny, spicy. Tastes citrussy and earthy with a nice, dry finish.

Apr 29, 2009 A orange amber ale with a thin white head. Light hops with light alcohol notes. It has a citrus flavor with little hops and grin notes. A little watery.

Apr 18, 2009 12oz bottle. Not a bad IPA but nothing great and why do they call it winter ale? I was expecting some kind of strong spiced beer not a light colored plainer tasting one.

Mar 27, 2009 The color of this surprised me right away. Pretty light in color for a winter. Some moderate spice and malts. A little bittering hops too. Plain for winter beer.

Mar 3, 2009 12 oz bottle. Pours a gold yellow color, much lighter than I would expect a winter ale to be. Also, a small white head with no lacing. Aroma is grains with piney hops. Palate is thin with moderate carbonation. Flavor is mostly grains with corn and a hint of malt. Some hop bitterness in the finish. An alright effort from Geary’s.

Feb 6, 2009 Bottle courtesy of dogfish120love – thanks Brian. Pours a medium slight hazy gold with a one finger white head. The nose is grassy hops and caramel. The taste is sweet caramel malt and light pine. Light-to-medium mouth feel. Meh, drinkable.

Jan 27, 2009 Geary’s makes fine English style ales, so I’m assuming this is their representation of an English IPA. Very different from what you get accustomed to in the states. It is a weird brew however, I felt it came across as a shallow attempt. Medium copper color with a lasting white head and good lacing. Aromas of stale pepper, toffee and a mix of fresh vegetables along with a woody aspect. Sharp mouth feel, dry and moderately bitter. It’s fairly tame and easy drinking. Grassy hop and lemon flavors coupled with crackers, buttered biscuits, and pepper. Solid brew, but odd overall. Mild IPA no matter what side of the pond you are on.
