Pours a clear cherry color, off white head is a small half finger but creamy in appearance. Retention is there and it leaves very distinct rings of lacing on the glass.

Toffee with slight licorice, tobacco, herbal spiciness and some raisin and um, leather... Hops are a balancing pine and resin. A bit odd but complex.

Malts are bready and robust with cherry sweetness and hints of muscat and cinnamon. Hops are equally balancing with pine and spicy herbs. Finishes with some bitterness, a touch soapy with the warmth of alcohol.

Sticky malt really keeps the bitterness from drying the palate. Moderate carbonation and body makes for a dense amber that is easy enough to put down.

Good beer, appropriate to the style. Malt is sticky and complex the touches of alcohol in a sessionable ale really make this feel true to the season. I want another and then curl up on the couch in front of a fireplace.

Serving type: bottle
