Harpoon Winter Warmer: Review


Happy New Year!

Harpoon Brewery
Boston, Massachusetts, USA
5.9% abv

Appearance: rich copper body with a soft beige head that leaves some lacing on the glass

Aroma: holiday allspice bread with nuts and caramel

Flavors: nutmeg, cinnamon, bread, lightly toasted caramel,

Mouthfeel: light-moderate carbonation for a fine fizzy feel, spice coats the palate and lingers, soft bitterness on the finish

To the Point: a nice Winter Ale, if you like your Winter Ale with brown spices you should like this one.  For me it is a one and done situation with the ales that have the cinnamon and nutmeg spices.
