Ehhh. It's interesting, but I never really need to drink it again.

Bottle. Nutmeg, clove, cinnamon, ginger and toffee malt aroma - a spice bomb. Golden yellow with large light tan head. Strong lightly sweet nutmeg, clove, ginger, cinnamon, and light malt flavor. A complete spice bomb - nothing much else.

12 oz bottle. Aroma reminds me of both milky chai tea and pumpkin spice beers--lots of clove, nutmeg, cinnamon. Pours hazy amber with some sediment under a medium beige head that falls after a minute; laces a little. Taste is sweet and full of those spices; some noticeable heat after the swallow, from the cinnamon I guess (or ginger--I just read the label). Thin and watery, and that’s the beer’s biggest flaw. As a spiced beer, this tastes pretty damn good, though. Lots of hate because it’s BMC, methinks.

Strong cinnamon nose. Cloudy ochre, thin head. In your face cinnamon and clove, the latter is dominant. Hints of orange peel. Light body, moderate carbonation. This is a big bag of spice, but still beery, a little. Blunt.

Bottle. A- Chai, spices, cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, nutmeg, ginger. A- Amber orange color, cloudy liquid, minimal head. T- Spices, chai tea. P- Medium body, average texture, medium carbonation, overspiced finish. O- Smelled okay. Loads of spices. Taste is an overload of spice and nothing but spice. This wasn’t even remotely worth it.

Limited release from this year’s winter mixed pack. Pours a slight hazy amber colour with a fizzy-foamy warm cap, average retention and some light creamy lace. Really smells like chai tea with some orange notes and lots of spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves). These spices are also found in the taste with some thin caramel malt. Quite an interesting spicy brew, but could not drink two in a row as pretty rich. Still, I love these spiced brewed they release for winter every year.

12oz bottle pours a clear orange with some foamy, white head. Nose has loads of cardamom and clove and cinnamon, some sweetened condensed milk. Flavor has some root veg, loads of spice, brown sugar, some caradmom. Not terrible on the finish. Maybe it was all that god damned Bud Light a-Rita, but this was tolerable.

Bottle: Hazy, amber-orange with a small, shiny white head. Heavily chai scented...cinnamon and nutmeg. Flavour is chai-tea, caramel malt....and some heavy-handed doses of peppery spice. Really overdone.....
