GABF 2008. Listed on the card as a brown ale, but with one sip it becomes apparent that this is more of a holiday-spice beer. Chocolate, cinnamon, mace, with a subtle raisin fruit note in the finish. Not what I expected, but a pleasant surprise in the end.

What an incredible aroma. Lots and lots of allspice, cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg, etc. Logan recommended this beer. Very dry. Dark black color. Low flavor.

The body is dark brown and the modest head vanishes rapidly. Under a heap of spicing there’s a dark caramel base in the aroma. The spices - cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, pine - dominate the flavor but a drying bitterness emerges in the finish. Like eating a Christmas cookie baked with hops.

Sampled from a growler at the Milwaukee YEHa!05 courtesy of DenverLogan: Pours a transparent dark copper with a thin lightly-lacing off-white head. Earthy musty spice aroma reminds me of Anchor Our Special Ale, but with a little less spice. Body starts with a thin lightly sweet ginger spice and earthy malt flavor with a touch of spruce. Finishes thin and dry. A decent spiced winter beer that hides its abv well.

Growler de Logan. Clear dark brown body. Sharp orange juice and dried cherry in the aroma. More grape juice in the flavor along with orange rind and bready yeast along with light coriander.

Thanks to DenverLogan for sharing this: Pours a dark brown color, no head. Aroma of strong spices, cinnamon and allspice, some green leefy stuff too. Flavor is sweet, a nice spice kick, smooth and malty body.

Milwaukee YEHa!05, brought by DenverLogan. Flat, dark brown body. Aroma of ginger, nutmeg, light notes of anise, and other spices, a bit sweet. Ginger, nutmeg, and anise also dominate the flavor profile. The body was flat, lifeless, and rather unappealing. There was a muted hollow quality to the flavor profile, too. This didn’t cut it for me.

Enjoyed at the Tosa YeHA 2005, growler provided by Logan, thanks:

Chestnut hued with a minimal head and little lace. The body is a bit thin but makes it more drinakable. Ginger, clove, nutmeg, pepper, carmel, smoked malts appear on the nose. The taste was similar with a nicely spiced and mild sweet mainframe with some additional bitterness and chalky finish. Not too bad and much better than my other beer from this brewery. A nice light XMAS beer, surprising.
