More from my much-loved Brewery Ommegang from Cooperstown,NY. Although this one didn't strike the same chord previous Ommegang products have. It was still a good beer though. More of a session beer than the others.
Appearance: Reddish-amber and cloudy with a thin off-white head.
Smell:Spicy.... kinda smells like Christmas or Halloween. That is if you associate smells to certain holdays like I do. If you don't,sucks to be you.
Tastes: Bitter,with tones of sweetness. Not as flavorful as Ommegang or Hennepin,but good. The bitterness was maintained throughout the 25 minutes I took to drink it, and still good.
Artwork:not much can be said. Mostly words with a big "O" in an ochre-red,which I'm assuming stands for Ommegang. The colors are subtle, nothing really that catches the eye. Unless you know the company's other products,this isn't the first thing a typical person might pick. Makes me thinck its not intended for the piss-guzzling dweebs. Good for them in purposely keeping the audience small.
Overall: Good,not great,but good enough to buy a whole sixer and session it.
