Samuel Adams Old Fezziwig Ale
Pours a clear burnt amber with a medium tan head. The foam dies down rather quickly to leave a film and some decent lacing. Spices are dominant on the nose, with cinnamon and a bit of nutmeg over a faint crystal malt backing. This is echoed on the palate, with the same spices, a bit of cocoa, and a dry, bitter, dark roasted malt finish. Very faint fruitiness in the background--I guess it's the orange. Decent, somewhat oily mouthfeel. Overall a pleasant beer.
