Poured from tap into pint glass in January 2022. I drank the beer at the Iron Hill Brewery's Ardmore restaurant.
Appearance: Red-brown with a light tan head. Head was about 2 fingers high, and lasted a minute. It left only a little lacing on the glass, and ended with a thin tan head still on the beer.
Smell: Sweet aroma of caramel, and chocolate.
Taste: There is a strong malt flavors, with nice cinnamon and ginger flavors. I also taste some chocolate and licorice flavors. The cinnamon and sugar on the rim of the glass, makes this a very sweet drink. I may prefer this without the addition of the cinnamon on the glass.
Mouth-feel: Medium body, but also smooth. It has a little edge for a winter ale.
This is a good Winter Ale, and I enjoyed the variety of flavors. It is sweet but also has a little hoppy bitterness for balance. I had a couple pints of this at the brewery, and would buy this again.

A bit too much coffee/stout flavor at the end; pretty good otherwise
