Oct 5, 2009 Nice light ale that has a very large body to it suprisingly. Spicy flavor, maybe a little fruit, also a nice finish thats crisp.

Sep 29, 2009 Pours a pale orange with a small head. Smells like apples, flowers, spice, biscuit, and cinnamon. Very nice smelling. The taste is decent, kind of like spiced apple juice. Mouth feel is almost flat. Enjoyable.

Sep 23, 2009 Bottle, thanks to hobbersr. Pours amber/orange with a thin white head that quickly reduces to a ring, spotty lacing. Nose is very distinctive; fresh-baked gingersnaps, biscuits, fresh and pickled ginger, clove, allspice, plus Christmas apple cider. Smells like a Woodland Critter Christmas, but without the blood orgies and rape. Palate is pleasant, if simple, with a mulled cider character, turns vinegary and ketchupy in the finish.

Sep 23, 2009 Perfumed spiciness. A little weak in flavour though. Honeydew stickiness with a little clove bite, nutmeg and cinnamon but needs more depth and balance. Thin and flatter than preferred for such a taste too.

Sep 22, 2009 Pours amber with a very weak head. Aroma is very pleasant. Notes of spices, heather, and bread. It kind of smells like cookies. The flavour is sweet, and cakey, notes of breadand spices, very light flavours. Interesting but not impressive.

Sep 18, 2009 this style is completely caught me off gaurd, compareing it to a traditonal ale has me baffled,I don,t think it belongs in with hair of the dog adam,or traquair jacobite, they are to differnt ends of the spectrum, just because it is a very old style dosen’t make them fall in to the same catagory that being said. pours a golden with a froty off white head with aromas are off florals and malts taste is of the same with a dry wine like finish reminds me of a wild ale or saison this is one of the oldest styles they have been brewing this with heather flowers for more than 2000 years before christ quite smooth and very drinkable
