This one was a nice surprise. I bought a single bottle as part of a 6-pack sampler for 2 reasons: I trust Avery Brewing, and I love the label. The warming effect from the beer (8.3% ABV) was instant, and I could definitely taste the hints of hazelnut & toffee that are mentioned on the label.

I call beers like this an “Instant 6”, as in: I can’t wait to get back to the store and buy a 6-pack. This will definitely be in my fridge for the holidays. Cheers!
