It drinks far easier than other Winter Warmers/Holiday beers that I have had. When we first introduced this beer, let’s just say that people weren’t exactly sure what to make of it. This is obviously a beer that has had some spices added instead of the other way 'round. Harpoon Winter Warmer 12 oz bottles-6 pack 10.79 Winter Warmer Cinnamon and nutmeg in a beer. The spices are noticeable, but not overpowering, and they do blend with malts nicely. Overall: Winter warmers and spiced ales/beers aren't really my thing, but this one isn't too bad. As strange as it may sound this beer reminded us of the Christmas season. Smell: I can sum this up in one word Christmas. The head lasted OK and left little to no lacing. Things finish with the spices (primarily nutmeg with cinnamon and cloves added in). Type of Beer: Spiced Ale Alcohol Content: 5.90 Beer Review Appearance: This winter ale pours a rich chestnut color with a one finger thick light tan head. As the cinnamon (and ginger) declines, the nutmeg comes forward. The cinnamon is up front along with ginger, but these quickly give way to the malts and candy. Harpoon Winter Mix 12 Pack - Beer Universe Harpoon Winter Mix 12 Pack Its cold outside. Taste: Very similar to how the beer smells. The spices do dominate the aroma, but they don't really get out of hand. A good undercurrent of malt, including darker malts (ie, dark bread) and even some toasted ones. The head lasted for quite some time, leaving excellent lacing on the glass.Īroma: Noticeable but not overwhelming note of spices - cinnamon primarily with some ginger and a touch of cloves. Look: Deep and dark but clear ruby that drifts towards a shad of mahogany with 2+" creamy beige head.
