Tap at Vine Street - like someone mixed a DIPA with an English Strong - quite a lot of plum, fig and other stone fruit character up front, as well as toffee and caramel - hops arrive late but come on strong - bitter, peppery and herbal - they work fairly well, but my big complaint is that they wash out the maltier aspects of the beer, which is what you generally want in a "winter warmer" - pretty tasty, none-the-less.

Tap @ Vine Street. Cloudy, maroon appearance with a tan head. Soapy, floral hoppy aroma. The flavor is a lot of the same. Soapy, floral hoppy, moderate fruity, somewhat boozy flavor. There is not a ton going on in my mind and I’ve waited for this thing to warm up.
