text: A - Chestnut brown with a huge foamy light brown head. Big chunks of lace left all over the glass. S - Pine hops with an underlying brown ale nuttiness. Hops really are the dominant aroma. Not picking up much of the typical "winter warmer" spices and such. T - Abrasive piney hoppiness hits first. Nutty malt backbone and just a touch of sweetness lie underneath. Not real sure what flavor they were going for here but I am not a huge fan. M/D - Light to medium body with an oily residue left behind in the mouth. Well carbonated. Just not the best of beers but certainly not a bad beer.
