Dec 12, 2009 nice seasonal brew, spiced just right for the Christmas season, nutmeg, allspice, clove. Love the smell. Medium texture, cloudy red brown color... not an everyday beer, but nice for the season, especially if you want something really different. this GABF Gold medal brewer is known for skill and creativity.

Big spice aroma. Copper mid brown coloured with a spicy clove flavour. A little bitterness in a crisp malt finish.

Oct 29, 2008 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.

Oct 24, 2008 What an incredible aroma. Lots and lots of allspice, cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg, etc. Logan recommended this beer. Very dry. Dark black color. Low flavor.

Jan 23, 2007 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. <font size=-4><a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/Places/ShowPlace.asp? Brewpub, Little Rock, AR<font size=-1>

Jan 22, 2006 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.

Dec 28, 2005 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.
