Winter Ale
Rec'd from the prolific & generous sholland119. It seems like every time I pull a beer out of the fridge lately it has Scott's name on it somewhere, thanks man! Well. Here meets one of my least favorite categories of brew colliding with one of my favorite breweries. Can Weyerbacher make a good winter ale? If anyone could... Weyerbacher Winter Ale is amber/brownish, with a small, quickly faded head. Smells pretty righteous, brother. Tastes OK. The nice smells translate to a decent enough brew. The spices are nicely complementary rather than simply offensive, which is a great start, but they still play oddly with the beer. Not a big fan of spices in my liquids unless it's 100% apple juice warmed on the stove. Mmmm. Couldn't drink more than one of these, & pretty happy I split this with the wife. Decent enough beer in a category I'm not a fan of, which makes it alright.
