Tap at The Jeffrey as I got drunk during Pats game. Pours deep amber with nice head. Roasty and doughy nose. Tastes of chocolate chip cookie dough, cherries, some spice and alcohol warming for sure. Enjoyable for cold afternoon.

Growler from a keg at Beer Table Pantry, NYC. Pours hazy, pale yellow with a frothy white head. The nose has crispy white, subtle yeast. Light sweet flavor with lightly dried wheat, hints of yeasty bread, very mellow smoke notes, maybe touches of lemon rind. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Super clean and refreshing on the finish with more dry wheat, faint smoke, citrus rind, faint bitter hay. Lovely beer. Well balanced and super drinkable.

Keg from Beer Table Pantry into a 1 pint stone mason jar, consumed at the hotel - 23/11/13. Dark black with a good sized tan covering that thins to a pond. Nose is dark malts, sweet brown sugar, light booze, liqourice, chocolate cake, dark fruit tones. Taste comprises chocolate cake mix, liqourice, hint of coffee, tar, brown sugars, dark berry fruits. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, sweet finale with a little dry roastiness. Decent Baltic Porter but a little overly sweet for my liking at times.

Keg at the Pony Bar UES - NYC. Pours clear, red-gold with a fine, creamy off-white head. The nose holds pine, candies, bread, ripe orange. Medium to big sweet flavor with sugary bread, bitter lightly toasted pine, earth, grapefruit, orange rind, alcohol, golden raisins. Full bodied with fine to average carbonation. Warming finish with some obvious alcohol presence, oily pine, grainy bread, booze-soaked citrus fruits, touches of dry wood. A bit heavy-handed at times.

Location: Draft at Ginger Man NYC, 11/24/13
Aroma: The aroma is butternut squash, nutmeg, ginger, pepper, pumpkin pie spice, and pine hops
Appearance: The pours is a clear dark orange color with a thick, creamy off-white head
Flavor: The taste is a nice mix of spices, squash, a little sweetness, and medium bitterness
Palate: The body is medium, it has a nice mouthfeel, and a good dryness to the finish
Overall Impression: This one is a very very cool experiment and a really enjoyable beer. I'm not sure I would have guessed that butternut squash, lots of seasonal spices, and hops would make for a great beer combination, but. It totally does. Bonus point for excellent creativity. Nicely done!

A beautiful reddish copper ale with a thin mocha head. In aroma, a rather spiced malt with banana, coriander and alcohol warmth. In mouth, a nice classic Dubbel with fruity caramel malt, light treacle, orange peel and light alcohol warmth. Sampler at Battle of the Belgians at Jimmys 43.
