Creamy, coffee, roast. I have been assured that this is not the same beer as the Knotted Porter.

Just a hint of sesame in the initial nose. This is really nice, subtle spices and caramel mellowness followed by candi sweetness. Way more balanced than the cinnamon ale, which I felt I should mention given the similar description.

Lightly sweet, caramel. There’s definitely cinnamon, but there’s also seems to be more holiday spices in the flavor profile. Bitter on the finish to remind you this is a beer.

Hoppy saison with a hint of pepper, finishes with a mellow cereal flavor that is probably from the grains of paradise. Lightly bitter aftertaste.

Light plum, caramel, tastes strong and also festive. Somewhat vegetal finish.

Opens as a mellow tripel that is slightly amped up on the cloves and then gets uncharacteristically hoppy. Has a similar finish to the Julius.

Orange, vanilla, hops, cloudy cereal finish. Initial impression is sweet but it’s well-balanced after the flavor transitions to hops. Aftertaste is somewhat bitter. Solid.

It was too hoppy.

Quite bitter, but good.

This is way more on the wine side now.

This seems... Schizophrenic?

Super-solid basic robust porter. Mild cocoa/nut flavor, medium-light on the roast. Helps that it paired with a delicious ribeye for two!

I still thought the ginger was subtle but I could detect it this time. A bitter, woody, but fragrant IPA. Finish is bitter but not the unpleasantly lingering type.

Thinnish, roasty stout. Definitely more roasty than the porter, and not quite as good.

The winner of the flight - a medium-bodied porter with light roast and really good malt backbone. I likedt his one a lot.

A nice IPA, with nice fragrance and a backbone of toasted barley flavor. But I don't think I tasted one ginger, much less four. So that was disappointing. Moderately bitter finish. Tingled on the tongue, as advertised.
