5 oz. pour as part of a flight at the brewery. Clear maple syrup brown with trace sparkle, no ring or lacing. Aroma is strong clove, winter spices and lesser dark fruit. Taste is strong winter spices. Smooth, frothy texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Good strength but straightforward winter spiced ale.
