Oct 30, 2009 Pours a dark mahogany/copper with a light tan head. Aromas of citrus hops, grapefruit, slightly masked roasted malts, and caramel. Flavor is citrus hops and grapefruit upfront then goes to a nicely balanced caramel and slight roasted malts. Somewhat dry, bitter, semi sweet. I wouldn’t mind aging some of these but I went through the 6 pack already:(

Jul 4, 2009 Very nice well hopped aroma of caramel, pine needles, and oranges. Clear dark orange, thin head, some lacing. Lots of orange and orange peel. There’s a hint of clove that turns to nutmeg in the end. Not as potent as advertised, but the alcohol is detectable. A nice holiday beer.

May 14, 2009 Poured a dark copper color, and had a sweet flowery aroma. The hops are definitely the showcase of this beer, but they were balanced very well by the malts. Probably my favorite of the Winter Seasonals, way to go Southern Tier!

Mar 19, 2009 This amber pour has a spicy and hoppy aroma to it. Sweet barley flavor with a touch of roasted malt and spice. It is light and smooth but packs a punch. A nice winter ale.
