Jan 13, 2009 Bottle. Pours an off-white head that fades but laces. Body color is amber. Smells of caramel and bread. Tastes of yeast, caramel, a bit sour, and light bitter finish. Decent mouthfeel.

Jan 13, 2009 550 ml bottle. Pours a deep amber hue with a 1/2" white head. Nose is malty with a caramel undertone. Nice smooth palate with a moderate body. Flavor is on the sweet side with some caramel shining through. More of a Scotch Ale in taste. Quite enjoyable as everything that I’ve had from Sam Smith has been.

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.
