Bottle: Poured a deep brown color ale with a medium size off-white foamy head with OK retention and light lacing. Aroma of caramelized malt notes with light peppery notes and with faint residual sugar notes with some whiskey notes. Taste is also a mix of caramelized malt, some peppery notes with some balanced residual sugar notes and some whiskey barrel notes with a dry finish. Body is about average for style with good carbonation and the 15% ABV is well hidden. Enjoyable strong ale with a good balance of complexity and drinkability.

Bottle, 2024 vintage. Cinnamon aroma with notes of gingerbread, roasted malt, chocolate, vanilla, bourbon, waffle cone and oak. Pours deep brown with a thin mocha brown head that has little retention and very little lacing. Starts with rich roasted malt, chocolate, waffle cone and oak flavors as well as having a rich, full body and slick, viscous mouthfeel. Finishes impeccably smooth with bourbon, gingerbread, cinnamon and vanilla flavors. Excellent variation on a classic.
