650ml bottle poured into Sam Adams pint glass.
Pours a deep, clear medium copper with one and a half fingers of foamy light tan head that leaves underwater rock formation lace as it recedes.
Smells of fresh crusty bread, caramel malt, sweet dark fruit and mild green hops.
Tastes of more crusty bread malt, spiced toasted orchard fruit and more soft green hops.
Feels nice and frothy. Medium bodied with lively carbonation. Finishes off-sweet.
Verdict: Recommended. Easy to drink.

Pours a light orange amber with a small amount of light brown foam. Aroma very strong caramel, sweet and spicy malts, sour fruits. Palate less well developed than the aroma. I get bread crusts, nondescript citrus pith, subtle butter toffee, cherry and sultana raisin notes. Hops are weedy with noble spice tones.
Finish grainy and astringent, which trumps the nicer sweet and fruity flavors. Not bad but harsh finish winds up dominating the other elements.

20oz pint at the Edmonton Oliver location, right on schedule as this year's celebrations ramp up! Drinking with an out of town client on an unusually warm evening doesn't hurt, either.
This beer appears a clear, bright medium bronzed amber hue, with a minor cap of puffy, foamy, and mostly soapy off-white head, which leaves some layered rings of bleeding paint swath lace around the glass as things genially recede.
It smells of tangy bready and doughy caramel malt, a hint of further toffee/nougat sweetness, a bit of spiced dark fruit, and soft earthy and leafy noble hops. The taste is more of that spicy, bready, and sweet caramel malt, buttery toffee, swarthy honey, browned apples and pears, and rather mild, but somehow supportive leafy and weedy hops.
The carbonation is fairly average in its somewhat swirling frothiness, the body a decent middleweight, a smidge smooth, and ethereally creamy. It finishes well off-dry, the robust fruity maltiness duly protracting the experience.
Overall, a pleasant quaff for the changing of the seasons, when the weather is (supposedly) getting chillier. The spicy malt tendencies are a bit different here than I've experienced in other Brewster's offerings, and are quite welcome. Easy to put back, and a sturdy aid in toasting whatever floats your boat.
