Poured from an undated pint can to a Nonic.
Frothy thick head, hazy gold, but not real hazy. Mildly aggressive pour resulted in considerable overspill with about 4 oz left in the can. Super head only lasts a couple of minutes.
Not much aroma from this one. I know my nose is good as I've been detecting other nuance aromas all day.
Flavor is mild considering the Cascade hops and add-ins. Despite the label, I sense maple. There is a sweetness that is probably the Juniper but I cannot identify it as that. Spruce comes in the end.
Mouth feel is borders on sticky, which perhaps was the goal.
Well, this is just average. Perhaps my undated can goes back to the release date. Entry date into the BA database is 12/23/18 if that is any indication.

1 Pint Can. 9 Days Fresh.
A: Pours a thick dirty golden yellow. Two fingers of white fluffy/creamy head. Good retention and nice lacing.
S: Strong berries and juniper I believe. It dominates the aroma. Some pine and grape. Not great.
T/M: The juniper and spruce again dominate the taste. Some citrus and stone fruits come in a bit. Solid malts. No bitterness. Very smooth and creamy. Tea like taste. Somewhat funky overall.
O: Okay New England Style seasonal Ale. The ingredients don't work well together.
