I poured this 12 oz. beer into a nonic pint glass. I am reviewing the 2011 beer.

A: clear deep russet color, the dark tan head falls into a nice creamy cap with stucco-like lacing.

S: roasty/toasty aromas dominate, with a velvet lining of vanilla, light caramel, a whisper of dark chocolate, and a delicate but noticeable herbal/earthy hop aroma.

T: toffee, burnt sugar, some coffee, roasted nuts, caramel sweetness, vanilla/oak, the hop finish is dry and nicely balances the sweetness and harmoniously blends with the roasted character of the beer. Very well put together beer, which hardly surprises me coming from Sierra Nevada.

M: medium-bodied, satiny smooth texture, and moderate carbonation that is enhanced by the bitter hop presence.

O: yet another exceptional beer from our good friends at Sierra Nevada. Now I want a Celebration Ale...
