My Overall Opinion: Very Good. 
I paired this beer with: Snyder’s sourdough hard pretzels.
Tasted on: Saturday October 2nd, 2010
Note: This beer poured a deep amber with a finger and a half tan head which thinned quickly leaving almost no lacing in the glass. The nose was sweet with malt and caramel and a hint of spicy hops. The taste was sweet with caramel and malt notes and finished with some hop bitterness. The mouthfeel was of a medium body with some sharpness in the feel at the end The drinkability was good as it had a mildly pleasant alcohol warmth which makes this a very good winter warmer. This beer really improved as it warmed up in the glass.
