Winter ales, must be coming to that season of warm, hearty brews. I bought this two round out my other buys of the last winter seasonal beers. Look/Pour/Smell - Hops galore, and a beautiful amber brown/red. Sticky, easy, fluffy head. The hops have a fruity smell, maybe lemon and orange.
Taste - The hops fade a bit to the silky malt. The hops are upfront, the bouncer and the malt is the slick d.j. running the party. It's really a two man show. It does impress in the look category.

There are other winter's that will impress more than this one. This is a middle of the pack.
