On tap at the Salem location
A - Poured a hazy dark brown/ruby, with an off-white two finger head, and excellent glass lacing.
S - Smell is of dark fruits, yeast, wheat, some brown sugar, and various spices (coriander is prominent).
T - Taste largely mimics the smell. Lots of dark wheat malts, coriander, clove, some sugars, and hints of vanilla, and even cherry. Lots going on with this one!
M - Medium bodied, with mild carbonation. Extremely smooth and slick going down.
O - This is the first beer I've had on here listed as an American dark wheat beer. Winter warmer, ADWA, whatever you want to call it, this was one of the smoothest and most unique brews I've come across. Worth trying if you're in MA at this time of year.

Poured into a pint glass. Had at Hingham location
Appearance: minimal head, minimal carbonation, dark red/brown in color, clear
Smell: roasted malt and dark fruit
Taste: the start is roasted dry malt--almost American Black Ale like--followed by a strong dose of coriander, light orange--and full dose of caramel at the end.
Mouthfeel: sweet with bitterness in the background, low carbonation, medium-light bodied
Overall: Most interesting beer I have had in a while and the absolute best I have had from the brewery. This is an interesting mix between a witbier and an American black ale minus the hops. I could drink several pints of this on a cold night if not for its uniqueness alone. I was blown away by this one as I do not think I have ever had anything quite like it before.
