Pours orange with a huge fluffy head. Aroma is floral, quite peppery and malty. Flavors are spicy and peppery, floral and refreshing fruits with a dash of cloves. I thought this was good and Ill be looking forward to trying their other one soon. If youve had a bad experience with this beer I did hear something about a problem with one of the earlier batches which has since been corrected. May be worth a re-visit.

Had at the winter solstice last year. Yeasty lightly spiced and citrusy. Aweird papery note to this that left a weird taste on my tongue. Still an okay beer.

750ml bottle from badbeer. Pours cloudy orange/yellow with a big, white head and good lace. Smells light and spicy with clove and some rosemary. Sweet overall. Tastes about the same with spices and sweetness. Nice lingering malt sweetness which helps out the spices. Medium body, good carbonation.

Bottle shared by alexsdad06. Poured hazy copper color with medium frothy white head that was mostly lasting with good lacing. Complex peppermint, herbs and yeasty aroma. Medium sweet spicy flavor with a medium sweet&sour finish of moderate duration. Medium body with a sticky texture and lively carbonation. Good brew.

750 ML Bottle-trade w/Daknole. Cloudy, mirky, off orange color w/a moderate white head & great lacing which lasted thru the brew. Sweet, spiced aroma. Sweet flavors of cane sugar, raisens, figs, bread dough, spice, & a touch of citrus. Very smooth, easy drinking, enjoyable brew. Alcohol was well hidden...very enjoyable. Thanks Dakine-Exclamation point.
