Pour is a clear copper with a large white head. Aroma is toasted malt and caramel sweetness. Flavor is more of the same but a little more sweet than toasted. It finishes dry so I'll give it that. Decent Americanized marzen.

Can/Fest. A- Lemon, white pepper, wheat. A- Pale yellow color, cloudy liquid, white head. T- Lemon, wheat. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, balanced finish. O- Not bad. A bit yeasty and some strong lemon flavors. Very drinkable and would work for many as a mower beer.

12 oz. from Binny's. Hazy, kölsch-y pour, with a brief bit of fizzy foam. Light wheat malt nose, not much lemon apparent. Taste is kind of tart, as expected. Pretty zesty summer refresher. Lemon can't help but take over from the light taste of the base kölsch. Enjoyed pretty quickly.

From the brewer at Mountain Hops Brewhouse.
Pours almost a pitch black with a small head of foam. Some decent lacing.
The smell is pure peanut butter
peanut butter, some roasted malt, but peanut butter is dominant.
The taste is just like the smell. No deviation. It tastes like numerous peanut butter beers that I have had in the past. May
Maybe fresher?
The body is on the lighter side.
Nice.

Pour is a very dark brown with a large white head. Aroma is brown malt with a little milk chocolate. Flavor is a bit of roasted nut with some chocolate malt. With winter in the name I thought this would have a bit of spice but it's not to be. This is still an ok brown ale.

Pour is a murky brown with a small soapy head. Aroma is sweet malt with some burning. Flavor is Sweet and thin with a little smoky finish. A little thin for a Scottish ale but this did have a nice smoky finish.

Draft. A- Butterscotch, Christmas spice candles, cinnamon, mid banana. A- Copper color, hazy liquid, off white head. T- Burnt caramel, cinnamon, rummy, creme brulee. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, slightly unbalanced finish. O- This was great as first but it's greatness waned as I drank it. The aroma was nice but the taste seemed to get messy as it warmed. Little to no banana but strong booze and cinnamon notes. Has a lot of potential, a lot, but it's not quite there. I think this would be better as a stout or strong ale.
