Ale brewed with spruce tips
Winter Seasonal
Appearance: clear shiny copper body with very little head
and not a trace of lace
Aroma: malty amber ale; very faint; no spruce or pine
Flavors: sweet grains; faint spruce tip; soft hoppy note to
keep the malts in check
Mouthfeel: sweet but not cloying; hops present but not noticeable;
crisp up front; light-moderate carbonation; medium body at best; soft bitterness on the back; semi-dry finish; the sweet malts mingle with the hops for a nice aftertaste
To the Point: a nice light olde ale; the spruce note could
be a little more pronounced; pleasing sweet grains; easy to drink; easy to
forget about – nothing special
