12 oz. bottle from Tops in Lewiston, NY. Pours a mostly clear orange-gold color with a thick off-white head and great retention. Great lacing too. Strong hoppy aroma. Hoppy flavor too, but only medium bitter. I'm not sure why they call this a Winter ale; This is all APA. Medium body. Slick mouthfeel. Too hoppy for my tastes.

12oz bottle. Filtered amber-copper body. Enjoyable malt tone, the hops don't really deliver a bite or balance though. Easy drinking, clean beer. OK.

12oz bottle. Filtered, relatively straightforward old school IPA. Nice balance. Toffee touched malt tone, more of a classical hop balance. Very drinkable.

12oz bottle. Soapy white head. Pale tan body. Not as nice malt tone as a good German example, but on the right track with the noble hops. Not a bad Pale Lager, but not that impressive of a Pils. Certainly drinkable. OK.

Überraschend, säuerlich und röstig, eher dünnflüssig. Hat mir gut gefallen.
