Deep reddish-brown color with a decent off-white head that leaves a good lacing in my glass, fruity and malty aromas. Smooth nutty and chocolate flavors, medium to full bodied with mild carbonation, full creamy and smooth mouthfeel, finishes kind of dry, alcohol well hidden until it warms, a solid winter ale.

Bottle. Poured brown with off white creamy haed. Aroma of malt, toffee, and hop. Sweet malty flavor with candy caramel and hops. Taste stronger then the 5.9% though. Good sseasonal

A very dark and pretty amber. Very few bubbles and a thin scum of a white head with a little more on the edges of the glass. The aroma is nutty and bready. Also has a slight note of roasted malts. The taste has caramel and nuts. Also some slightly sweet molasses. A solid beer that is a little sweet and refreshing. Mouthfeel is medium with a little stickiness. Very well done.

Chestnut color with a medium size frothy head. Nice sweet aroma of malt, caramel and a hint of hops. Mildly sweet malt flavor with lots of caramel and a hoppy finish. Kind of tastes like a barleywine.

Fiery red color, bold, burnished crimson, with a sizeable serving of creamy-tan froth atop, softly settling. Aroma, soft, yet spicy, nutty, malty, hints of dark fruit. Nice enough. Big, generous mouthfeel, greets the lip and tongue warmly, instantly delivers pure pleasure through maximum flavor. Rich and malty mix of spice and fruit, with traces of toffee, brimming with character. Lays on the palate long as you please, settling in nicely and spreading joy with it’s sweet delight. Great drinkability, beautifully textured. This one’s a winner!

Pour is a deep red with a smallish white head. Aroma is non-existent but there is a little something there. Flavor is malty,spicy and a bit hoppy in the end. Nothing really stands out or overpowers. Average.

Like pleasant nose, dark brown amber, foamy frothy head. Medium caramelly malt body with a dry toasted malt end. A little spicey too. Medium body. Drinkable, but not so exciting.

I remember this being good. Litlte hazy on specifics, I was monumentally drunk at the time. Hungover and vomiting for 5-6 hours this morning. Arrr
