Full Moon Winter Ale (2008)
WWED Grade: B-
Appearance: Too much head on the pour. Very creamy brown head though – nice. Good color – very dark brown. Couldn’t see through at all. Only slightly when held in front of the sun.
Smell: Musky. Sweet. Malted. Sugary.
Taste: Sweet taste. Slightly bitter. Didn’t knock me out.
Drinkability: Yeah – this is a drinkable beer. Medium carbonation.
ABV: 5.6%
Serving Type: Bottle poured into glass.
Not bad. I may have been a little over-excited about this beer because I’m such a fan of the Blue Moon Heffy. Like I said – it didn’t knock me out. As far as Winter Brews go, for a major brewery (Coors) to put out a beer like this in mass consumption – pretty good. Good price, nice flavor – not the best on the market, but certainly not the worst. Go ahead – give it a try…
