Bottle shared by MikeTD. Pours with a deep brown body with a tan head. Aromas are amazing with notes of frosted snickerdoodle cookies, ginger and bourbon. Flavors of graham crackers, sugar cookies, woody, earthy with a bit of an estery/fruity finish. Medium bubbles. Thankfully it is not a sweet as the aroma would lead you to believe.

Bottle shared at the "AK to the HB" tasting on 12/30/10: Pours a dark amber-brown color with a medium light beige head that recedes steadily. Thick rings of lacing. Aroma of malt, caramel and cinnamon. Medium body with a boozy character and flavors of caramel malt, spices and dark fruit. The finish is sweet and malty with a gingerbread aftertaste. Good beer overall.
