Let me re-iterate that this is the best beer on the face of the planet. Powered by the clean mountain springs of northern Vermont, this is a delicious beer that embodies all that bber should be - delicious, warm and lingering. How any man could turn his back on such a bountiful blessing is beyond me. This beer is like a warm crackling Chistmas hearth in your soul. Really...its that good.

I tried this at dinner last night and it was very good with food. It has a nice strong taste and an equally dry after taste that most good ales have.

My favorite example of an Alt clone. Mr. Miller knows his stuff.

A dark caramel like aroma from malt with barley hops. A bit spicy. Tates kinda like putting a penny in your mouth. It makes your mouth tingles a little. A very good beer to enjoy when you are on a hiking or camping trip. You can get this beer in most bars and resturants throughout Vermont on tap.
