Batch #048. 11/12/2015.
Treated as an American Stout, this was poured into a nonic pint glass.
The appearance was a black color with a tan foamy level slim quarter finger-ed head. As the head dissipated, a delicate film of lace stuck to the glass.
The smell took rich sweet milk chocolate, dark chocolate, some roasted coffee beans and nuts and blended with a layer of sweet grain.
The taste was a stellar blend between the roast, the sweet and the bitter between the chocolate, coffee, flaked oats and nuts. Dryly, the aftertaste wraps up the flavors and gives way to a sly little finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a medium on the body with a sweet sessionable dry and creamy feel sticking yet also sliding on my tongue in a smooth sort of way.
Overall, as an American Stout, this one works. I’m not used to Frost making a non-hoppy beer as I’m glad I got to add it on here and be its first reviewer. Looking forward to grabbing this one again this winter.

22oz bottle from Hunger Mountain Coop, pours a dark orange with some creamy, white head. Nose is muddled, dried orange peel, malt, soap, light pine, everything you expect from an IPA. Nothing new though. Flavor has malt, light candy, quite piney, a little pink peppercorn, orange. Medium bodied. Sadly, just like the label promises... just another IPA.

22 oz. bottle, sent from yourilevesque (thanks a lot, Youri!), pours an opaque deep dark orangey brown with a large frothy white head. Aroma brings out a good balance of rich resinous hops and caramel malt. Flavour is along the same lines, with rich resinous hops, some citrus rind and a big caramel malt backbone. A little maltier than I usually like, but this is done really well. Very good.

On the bottle reads \"batch #034, 10/01/2015.\"
This was poured into a nonic pint glass.
The appearance was subtle hazy burnt orange close to a ruddy brown color with a light transparency about it. A nice level eggshell white foamy slim coat of a head maintains its worth for a good minute before gently dissipating. Foamy lacing graces the glass nicely.
The smell starts off with a sharp sweet to toasty crisp rye spice leading into some sweet breadiness and allowing some citrus and grassy hops to slyly move in underneath. Some light black pepper slides in underneath.
The taste was a nice blend of sweet to spicy goodness leading into a dry semi-sweet sticky aftertaste and finishes crisp and dry.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fairly decent sessionability about it. Carbonation runs fairly light and smooth to allow the rye bitterness along with the citrus combine sharpen and hit my tongue pretty nicely.
Overall, this was a pretty good AIPA. Good job Frost for pulling off a nice example of a seasonal rye IPA. Though it’s fairly dry, I’d still have it again.

This was poured into an English pint glass.
Batch #038, 10/01/2015.
The appearance was a semi-dark amber to red color with a light transparency about it and a one finger white foamy head that dissipated within less than about forty seconds. Lacing was fairly clingy and somewhat thick.
The smell started off with a sweet breadiness running into a slight caramel maltiness and allowing some roasty nuts to blend nicely.
The taste was moderately sweet with a light earthy to semi-herbal quality rolling about. Breadiness is dry and semi-sweet in the aftertaste and leading into the finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium in body with a nice sessionability about it. Carbonation runs light allowing the earthy/herbal quality to take effect and smooth and dry things out a bit on my tongue.
Overall, its a good Amber that I could have again. I’d say it could probably go well with or in beef stew.

Bottle consumed in NH. It pours clear orange - amber with a small white head. The nose is soft, fresh, savoury, lemon, kaffir lime and fresh mint. The taste is crisp, bitter, minerals, lemon verbena, pithy lime, cracker and straw with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Simple, but enjoyable enough.

Bottle. Pours amber orange off white head. Nose/taste of caramel malt, resin, pine, orange peel and old grapefruit peel -medium body.

Bottle shared in NH. Pours deep honey-gold with a frothy white head. The aroma has some melon, orange, faint pine. Light-medium sweet flavor, some crackery malts, pine, melon, ripencitrus, rind. Light bodied with average carbonation. Moderately sweet on the finish, toasty bread, melon, orange. Fine.

Draft at Farmhouse Tap and Grill. Bright yellow color with lasting head retention. Aroma is huge citrus notes of grapefruit, lemon, tangerine and light grain.

The flavor is mostly bright citrus with a very light note of pine in the finish. The mouthfeel is light and airy with a semi Dry texture. The bitterness is on the lower side with nice citrus throughout. Very nice drink.

This was poured into a tulip.
The appearance was a hazy burnt orange to brown color with a one finger white foamy head that quickly dissipated. There was barely any lacing. Fizzy bubbles did rise rapidly.
The smell had a crisp sharp orange rind running into sweet citrus and sprucy/somewhat piney background.
The taste was fully bittersweet citrus pulp and rind. Orange pulp starts to come out more so as it warms. A nice bittersweet citrus aftertaste leads into the finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a medium on the body. Carbonation runs appropriate for the style and for me. Bittersweet harshness pummels my tongue very nicely.
Overall, another nice DIPA from a brewery just around the corner from where I live. I’d definitely have again.
