12oz bottle. Poured a hazy, rusty orange color with a monstrous off white head that didn’t want to go anywhere. Nose was mostly fruity, flavor was fruity and doughy. Mouth feel was very strange, both oily and creamy........interesting brew.

Bottle. Large frothy ivory head that was mostly lasting, no lacing, slightly hazy, uncarbonated, and an orange brown hue. Nose was sweet, orange peel, vanilla, cinnamon, and lightly spicy. Flavor was sweet, vinuous but not overly so, spices, cinnamon, vanilla, and finishes dry. Mouthfeel was slightly tingly and dry. Medium body. Quaffable, but definitely not one of my favorite styles.

This amber ale poured with a large fluffy beige head. There is a thick malt body that is heavily laced with everything on the spice rack. It’s very carbonated and leaves a spicy thickness on the tongue long after the swallow. A bit overpowering, but rather tasty.

Bottle. Pours a coppery dark amber with a thick and fluffy beigh head. Tons of carbonation. Aroma is sweet with fruit, malt, coriander, light vanilla, and some spices. Rich malt flavor with vanilla, fruit, nutmeg, and spices. medium bodied with a dry finish. A unique and refreshing complex beer.

12 oz bottle (2008) from BottleTrek.com. Pours a murky orange with a huge frothy head. As I was pouring it, I could smell sweet vanilla. As I got closer to the glass, the spices came through. Flavor is similiar. The high carbonation stings the tongue. Very flavorable, but not overbearing. Nice winter brew.

Clear amber with a viscous 1" head. Zesty spicy smell of orange peels coriander. Full bodied and smooth . Taste mirrors the smell with a nicely complex spicyness. Very well done. 6406

This bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a head of all foam finely sized light brown colored bubbles that were mostly lasting and left behind a softly carbonated dark orange brown colored body. The mild aroma was brown malt. The mouth feel was weakly tingly at the start mediumly tingly at the finish. The flavor contained notes of hops mild spice and brown malt. An OK brew just nothing special.
