Southern Tier Old Man Winter (pack of 6) (35.5cl, 7.5%)

Southern Tier Old Man Winter is a 7.5% ABV winter warmer ale from Lakewood, New York, brewed by Southern Tier Brewing Company. It is built on two varieties of malt and three varieties of hops, fermented with a house ale yeast derived from a British heritage strain that produces noticeable fruity esters. It is sold as a six-pack of 12 oz bottles. The aroma brings rich caramel and honey-laced bread, roasted malt and a touch of smoke, with subtle earthy, herbal character and faint floral hop notes. The palate opens with pronounced caramel malt sweetness balanced by piney hop bitterness, developing dark cocoa, fig, nutty malt depth and hints of marmalade. The finish lingers with toasted malt, bittersweet cocoa and a peppery, slightly smoky edge.
