Tap (Hivernale): Clear deep amber ale with quite large foamy head. Aroma consists of dried fruit with some light plums notes. Wooden notes are quite subtle with some light residual sugar and no hops presences that can be distinguish. This beer is sweet but never overly so and the alcohol was really well hidden. This is a beer I would like to have on a regular basis and a brewpub I would like to visit someday.

On tap at Winter Warmer: Poured a clear light copper color ale with a small foamy head head. Aroma is dominated by some sweet, but not overly so, notes of dry caramel malt. Aroma is also a nice balance mix between some dry caramel malt with some notes of residual sugar. Hops presence was very faint. Finish is somewhat dry and light bitter. I really enjoyed this one which isn’t the most complex beer but is well worth drinking.
