Jan 12, 2009 I enjoy most of samuel smith’s beers, but the first time I had this, it blew me away. Every year I get it. And it still is consistently, one of my favorite beers

Jan 12, 2009 SS makes standard beer. silky amber pour with medium bubbly head. yeasty smell but a light body and dry finish. Nothing really made this seem any more fit for winter than most of Sam’s other offerings.

Jan 12, 2009 Bottle pour. Deep amber color, smallish white head, which did stick around rather well considereing how small it was. The aromas are mainly bread and malt. The flavor is deep and a little on the sweet side. Very smooth and silky on the palate. I definitely enjoyed drinking this beer, as I do with most of teh Samuel Smith offerings.

Jan 9, 2009 Pours a light amber with minimal white head. Malty flavor up front with hints caramel, toffee, and apricot. Some piney and citrus finish from the hops. Not bad but not a stand out.

Jan 9, 2009 Updated: Apr 5, 2009Crushed with CaryTheDude and JakeBra. Not sure I’d call this an english strong ale, or a winter warmer. Kind of a vaguely hoppy aroma, with a bad ESB taste. Kind of weak. Maybe its the seaweed.
