Poured up on tap at the brewpub where it exhibits a clear amber to copper body that supports a thin tan head. The aroma offers up brown sugar, prunes, dates and then ginger with a sliver of cinnamon in the background. The taste delivers plenty of winter like spice notes as well as some raisins and prune sweet fruitiness. The body thins out to midway as it picks up a bit of a brown sugar sensation. Not my thing but it does create a nice balance of beer and spice notes.
