Booze...in 50 Words or Less: Weyerbacher Winter Ale

Weyerbacher Winter Ale
While it probably helped that this was the first thing that touched my lips after two hours of full-court basketball, I think I would have enjoyed this beer no matter the conditions. It's supremely malted with a smoky character. Traces of cherry jumped out at first sip.

Booze...in 50 Words or Less: Flying Dog K-9 Cruiser Winter Ale

Flying Dog K-9 Cruiser Winter Ale
Don't get me wrong: I actually liked this beer from the Maryland brewers and Ralph Steadman aficionados. It has interesting notes of cherry, caramel, chocolate, and more. However, it is so malty, it almost seems like more of an Oktoberfest. I'm not complaining though.

Booze...in 50 Words or Less: Smuttynose Winter Ale

Smuttynose Winter Ale
For my first beverage back on American soil, I chose this seasonal beer by the Portsmouth, N.H., brewers. On a night where three intriguing beers were consumed, this was the clear winner. It was heavy on malt while subtly flavored with hints of cherry. Tremendous from first sip.
