I've had this sitting for a few months and I don't think it's going to benefit from too much aging. Tasting notes below!
Date: 1/14/10 815pm
Beer: Southern Tier Old Man Winter Ale
ABV: 8%
From: Bottle
Vessel: Snifter
Temp 46f
Pours a nice clear, copper color with minimum white head. Nose is slighty citrusy with a decent hop aroma and hints of sweet malt. Tongue is NOT very hoppy, subtle malt with notes of brandy and honey. Well-balanced and a lot like a Sam Adams winter lager but less "spicy". Southern Tier is known for some exoctic brews, so it's no surprise that a winter lager seems....plain. That being said it is tasty. Nothing mind-blowing, but it will go down easy on a cold winter night!
3/5
