From a trade with Beerhawk. Pours a near clear chestnut brown with red coolaid highlights and good big tan head, that fads to a thin ring. Faint Aroma of fake cocoa powder. Flavor is mellow and a hint of cherry, chocolate on the finish. Rich medium body Reminds me vaguely of Tommyknocker cocoa porter.

Not sure what spices they are aiming for, the pour is amber with a decent head, nothing to write home about. Overall mouth feel is light and the flavor is nice. Easy finish and light aftertaste.

Deep amber pour with a medium foamy tan head. Sweet malty aroma, with spice and hints of light fruit. Flavor is rich and spicy, definately more than I was expecting. A pretty nice brew.

Bottle. Pours an amber color. Aroma is malt and brown sugar. This beer is average. Not a whole lot of flavor. Very smooth and drinkable beer. Below average in appearence. Would not get again

Dark amber with a thick tan head. Spicy aroma of maple and cinnamon. A little too zesty for the summer but would make a good fall/winter beer which is when it was probably released.
