Medium white foamy head. Aroma is malty and sweet with touches of oranges. A medium bodied American Strong Ale. Malts are nutty and fruity. Hops are slightly spicy. Nice blend of fruit flavors and spiciness. Well balanced. This is a very subtly crafted, tasty Christmas beer. Very slight alcohol bite. Mouthfeel is full and round, Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is bitter.

The beer poured a translucent brown with a smallish head that was frothy and light tan in color, the lace a decent covering upon the glass. Nose sweet malt and hints of caramel, quite pleasant with the start thickly malted and sweet, top middling in fell. The finish has a stern acidity and the hops majestic in their spiciness, quite dry and lingering aftertaste, a quite nice deer that I sampled a few times to get a handle on.

Fairly hoppy with moderate maltiness underneath. Toffee and caramel malts with citrusy, resiny, berry hops and a nice bitterness. Long, lasting finish with a smooth mouthfeel. Well hidden alcohol.

Sparkling clear, mahogany ale with a small, creamy, beige head. Excellent lacing. The aroma is of chocolate and light hickory smoke. Well-balanced flavor, well-hopped, moderately bitter with notes of chocolate and caramel. Medium-bodied with an oily mouthfeel and soft carbonation. Short, watery finish. herbjones (742), Orange, California, USA
