Bottle from Degarth; Thanks Joe! Nose of grain and light spices (cloves); Clear golden blonde with a small rellowish head; flavor of spices, light carame, and a small amount of hop bitterness lasting to the finish. A surprisingly good brew!

Bottle from Santa - cloudy golden pour with a few suspended particles - aroma of lemons and wheat, and not much else - very acidic, tart, citrus flavor, with thin body and little going on, making it taste more like seltzer with lemon in it than a beer - almost completely watery finish - say hello to my septic system, beer.

Bottle: Hazy orange in color with a lasting and I mean long lasting white head. The aroma was as to be expected as slight rasberry fruit was present. The taste however was sour slight berry, but more wheat.

16 oz bottle. Poured a clear copper color with thin white head. The aroma is on the light side with slight malt sweetness and hints of wintry spices. The spice flavors are bright with nutmeg, cinnamon and maybe even coriander. Behind the spicy veil is a murmur of sweet caramel malts. Lighter still is the note of hops. Too subtle for my hop stunted palate to discern. Nice tasty winter brew. The only negative I have for this low gravity ale is that the spices could be a bit softer. Sure wouldn’t want ‘em too soft though.

Bottle from santa - dark amber pour with a frothy head - fairly nutty, typical brown ale aroma - fairly inviting - very hoppy and herbal up front - the hoppiness subsides, leaving a semi-dry, cocoa and hazelnut quality - pretty nice for the style - quite under-rated.

Bottle from santa - pours a hazy straw color, with a gigantic head - aroma of grapefruit with sugar poured over the top of it - light body, light sweetness, light bitterness, light bready quality, pretty much light/weak in flavor overall - I suppose this makes it quite sessionable, but even session ales can be flavorful - this...is not.
