Tap @ brewery. Cloudy brown appearance with a small tan head with large bubbles. Spicy aroma- ginger, vanilla, allspice- with notes of toasted caramel malts. Creamy, dark chocolate, vanilla, caramel/toffee malty centric flavor with the spices subdued but a nice addition. Nice job!

Tap at CK - hey, a winter ale that isn’t a booze bomb - what a novel concept - cloudy dark brown - thin ring of white lace - like chai in beer form - smells and tastes of cardamom, cinnamon, nutmeg - there may even be a hint of white pepper in there, as there is a slight peppery bite on the tail end - there is some moderately sweet, roasty, nutty malt underneath to balance and the spices are not overdone, resulting in a nuanced, sessionable winter brew with plenty of character - a lot of vanilla as it warms - another nice one from Copper Kettle.
