Nov 16, 2004 Probably my favorite of the Shorts line-up and one of the best amber ales brewed in Michigan. Nice chewy color with a solid craggy head. Maltiness, nuts, and a little tinge of hop in the aroma. Great mouthfeel, this is one thirst quenching beer. It really does capture the spirit of season.

Aug 15, 2008 On tap at the brewpub. Poured a clear amber with a beige head that laced down. Caramel burnt malts and herbal noble hops in the nose. Creamy palate that’s smooth and enjoyable. Malty flavors that are strong with toffee, nuts, and caramelized malts. Finishes with an herbal bitterness. Tasty beer.

Aug 28, 2009 Big ol’ 22 oz. draft. Copper-brown with a decent foamy head. Aroma replete with caramel malts and spicy hops. Smooth and drinkable flavor dominated by the malt and accentuated by a great spice finish. Incredible autumnal seasonal.
