About This Beer
pFriem crafted this beer with a quartet of specialty malts and thoughtful additions of Chinook, Citra, Mosaic, El Dorado, and Galaxy Hops.
Tasting Notes
This brew practically begs you to enjoy it alongside some roast turkey or holiday ham! Caramel nuances swirl through hoppy pops of evergreens and citrus zest, while fruity tones infuse a dash of blueberry-like juiciness to the malts.

Much too juicy for a winter ale. It’s a juice bomb. Disappointing.

Beautiful amber pour with lacy head. Copious amount of spruce and wet hay aromas. Taste is simultaneously malty and bitter with warming boozy finish. Great winter warmer!

Solid Ale. From bouquet to the tasting notes.

An interesting looking beer. Pours a hazy, caramel color. Malty nose with a twist of pine and earthiness. It has a nice spicy, hop bite with a lingering, slightly sweet finish and a hint of smokiness. Pulled this out of my cellar. Bottled 10.31.17.

A pleasure to drink. It’s a west coast foil to Alchemist’s Heady Topper - a more zen hop bomb that is almost too drinkable. This is a pine forward, crisp, and malty dream.

just not for my liking. bitter and not flavorful. far off from the high expectations and standing I have for pFriem. this could be due to my needing to cool it on ice and then poir to glass. they get a pass on this one for sure; I still think highly of
