29th May 2015: 15oz pour, on-tap at the Seal Beach Beachwood BBQ bar. Cloudy yellow with a white topping that faded very quickly. Not too ’farm yard’ in nature, semi-sour with citrus notes really. The aroma held a mixed bag of fruitiness all crushed together: lemons, melons and sweeter tropical stuff like star fruit. The taste followed along the same lines with the sourness being provided by the citrus flavours within the brew. I really enjoyed it.

Capped, waxed 750 from Monument in Concord, CA. Pours dark brown with a slight tan head. Aroma has lots of cocoa, a fair amount of bourbon, and maybe figs. Some spice as well. Full bodied or nearly. Flavor starts with alcohol, but that works here. There is a lot of Xmas spice, with chocolate, wood, treacle and bourbon. Drinks pretty good. Maybe a bit heavy on spice for spring, but timing isn’t everything? I don’t think heat is a problem, but my tongue is burning a bit along the edges. Very nice winter ale.
