Mar 22, 2009 Amber with a thin tan head. Aroma of spice, malt, ginger and cinnamon. Taste of cinnamon, malt, spice, honey with a heavy spice finish that’s mildly astringent. Pretty much just a mix of spices and malt.

Mar 7, 2009 How about - Pine cones in a glass, in a very good way. This hearty ale always reminds me that Christmas is nearly here, because no matter how much of this they brew every year, you cannot find it in Cleveland by the time the week after Christmas comes around. Get it while it is hot, for $10.99 a 6 pack (well worth it!)

Feb 5, 2009 Reddish color with a big spicy aroma with lots of sugar and cinnamon. Flavor of candy, cinnamon, and assorted spices that don’t match the inviting aroma. OK, but a bit messy.

Feb 2, 2009 Draught, Redlight. Rich copper hue. Slight haze. Lovely thick, thick creamy lacy head leaving a thick lacing. Nice looking brew. Douglas fir, juniper, and holly aromas. Such a nice departure from ho-ho-hum mulling spice brand of Christmas beer. Exceptional smoothness. Soft and silky. Lovely brew, I love this brewery!!
