As a winter warmer, this falls short of my expectations for the style. Thin head with very little lacing. Smells nice and spicy, reminiscent of red cinnamon heart candy. Just out of the fridge, this tastes like a summertime beer with some cinnamon and a bit of nutmeg thrown into the pot for good measure. The ABV is not evident here. The flavor is tart, like a lemon zest (in the back of the tongue) sprinkled with cinnamon (in the front, sides and middle). Not at all the characteristics of warmers in my memory. As it warms, the flavors and aroma remain the same, but fuller and rounder than before. Five minutes after the last sip, I feel like I sucked on too many lemon balls and my breath is fresh. Interesting? Yes, but just kind of odd.

Should be called First Yellow Snow. How they managed to capture the essence of deer urine is a mystery.

Didn't care much for it. The spice was ok but seemed to have a mild sour taste. Not terrible but not great either. Bottle, December 2013.

Spicy and sweet, almost like A pumpkin beer. Amber in color with little head and pumpkin notes. Decent but seems offseason

Christmas in a glass

Delicious. Happy and Christmas like. Spice, but not punch you in the face, more muted and complimentary
