Current seasonal.

This beer appears a clear, glassy medium ruddy amber hue, with one fleshy finger of tight foamy beige head, which leaves a sinking band of lace around the glass as it evenly settles. It smells of lightly toasted caramel malt, a tea leaf essence not quite as obvious as expected, clove, nutmeg, and soft leafy hops. The taste is gingerbread, softly soused - cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, with an earthy tea-bagging for good measure, and outside looking in earthy hops. The carbonation is moderate, if a tad zippy, the body a solid medium weight, and agreeably smooth. It finishes off-dry, the eponymous spice/tea mixture persisting.

A decent amber ale, nicely augmented by the warm fireplace bevy experience. Worth a try.
