So yummy, it'll make all the spirits happy.

A reddish ale rich with hops and malts and all good things. It goes exceptionally well with the spicy stir-fry I made for dinner tonight.

ABV: 5.9%

A sweet and creamy concoction that reminded me more of a cool glass of chocolate milk than a thick, winter beer.

Served up in a frosty glass, it's a delicious way to fight the winter cold. I sat in front of the fire drinking this tall boy and reading the book Traffic last night.
