Appearance - Dark amber and clear with a foamy white head that dissipates into a thin white rim.

Aroma - Sweet, fresh apples with notes of cinnamon, clove, cardamom, ginger and raisin.

Experience - Sweet, baked apples followed by a vivid blend of clove and cardamom. Black tea rounds out the flavor and leaves little to no tannin. Medium-bodied with a crisp, red apple skin aftertaste.

The Dude's Rug really Chai'd the room together.

Keg at the 4th Copenhagen Beer Celebration, Session 3, 02/05/2015. Rich amber with a moderate collapsing off white head. Nose is pear drop, spice, dried fruits, grains. Taste comprises wooded notes, herbal, spice, raisins, apple pie, more pear esters. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, drying close with a sweet and spicy climax. Ok cider ... something a little different ... the herbal bite prevents this from becoming too sweet.

Bottle. Pours cloudy dark amber. Aroma is cinnamon, chai, ginger, spices. Body is medium, starts a lot like a chai and then turns into apple cider. Dryish tea palate. Odd. Good, but not something I would drink a lot of.
