Feb 18, 2008 Label has a nice drawing of a tower in a snowstorm - is this a typical Vermont scene? I was surprised to see that this is wheat beer - or a half wheat beer, I guess. Dark brown and cloudy with a light head. Nice aromatic hops. The taste is rich with malt and hops - coffee, pine, bread, a little astringency. It is not too sweet, but the malt is still present. Hops and herbal sweetness in the finish. Not astonishing, but well-balanced and darn good - cheers to you, Burlington!

Jun 15, 2008 This was a very deep brown ale with a smooth body and flavor. It wasn’t too hopped up or filled with rich spices, just nice subtle flavors that a dark ale should have. The bottle label reminded of those decorated in Belgium for Christmas such as the Noels or the Still Nacht.

Dec 12, 2007 Pours from the bottle a nice head that hangs around only a few seconds or until your first sip, then dissipates into a fine film. Has a pungent and hoppy aroma as well as a decent hoppy and thick, and slightly sweet taste. A very decent winterish brew or certain.

Mar 13, 2008 tan head with a dark brown cloudy body. smells like hops. the palate is nicely complex but difficult to point out the comparisons. nice dry finish.
