Tucked deep in the mountains, the holidays are a special time of year for us. Time slows down a bit, the snow falls quietly and we are reminded of the joy that life brings. In such a spirit, we offer this seasonal beer – a collection of spices and maple syrup from a good friend’s farm that brings together a complex beer that will age and develop for years to come. This seasonal offering is best paired with family, friends, and a general delight in one’s life.

The spice is strong, and a bit harsh on the palate. Doesn't mesh fantastic with the malt, with comes across as a bit thin for the spice. 2017 beer advent calendar.

Bottle - Lots of ginger and spice. Clear gold with a small frothy head. Ginger, bit of a bite and a long finish. Ginger dominates and in a fairly boring way.

Amber colour, and bright. Not much head - just some bubbles. The aroma is quite spicy - lots of ginger and maybe some cinnamon. There's some good body, some liquorice, ginger, and maybe a bit of clove. This is pretty assertive, but it has enough base malt to get it across the palate. And at the end of the day, it's pretty solid if you can handle the brash spice.

12 oz. bottle, pours a clear copper with a small beige head. Aroma brings out nutmeg and cinnamon, not much else. Flavour is similar, with nutmeg upfront, with a touch of cinnamon. Weak and watery, and ultimately a pointless beer. No good.

355ml bottle. Pours a slightly hazy orange with a medium, creamy, short lived, off-white head that laces nicely. Spicy aroma of ginger, nutmeg, cinnamon, cardamom, clove and toasted malt. Sweet, spicy flavour of ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, maple syrup, toasted malt, clove and a hint of caramel in a dry, bitter finish. Medium body with an oily texture and soft carbonation. One dimensional, this beer is a total spice bomb.

Bottle. A- Nutmeg, cinnamon, strong spices. A- Copper color, clear liquid, white head. T- Nutmeg, cinnamon, holiday spices. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, strong spiced finish. O- Jesus. Had I blindly poured this I’d have thought I was drinking another nasty Blue Moon seasonal novelty. This beer was possibly loaded down with more spice, primarily cinnamon and nutmeg, than any other beer I’ve ever had. Maybe all of them combined. Way too much spice to get anything out of it.

Tap @ Crazy Mountain. Pours a dark orange appearance with an off white head. Spicy ginger, clove, floral/herbal, a bit toasty malty aroma. Fairly zesty, ginger, cardamom, cinnamon, light toast flavor. Not bad.
