My Opinion Of The Beers That I've Tried:
18.0 points overall

• Saranac Winter Wassail (bottled)
  Style 22 - Herb / Spice Beer
  • 20 points - Beer #27-2247, Willow Glen Liquors, San Jose CA, September 12, 1997
    Red-brown clear, big head, moderate carbonation. Cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, orange aromas. It's liquid gingerbread. Yet it's still definitely beer. Real smooth, real tasty.

• Stout
  Style 11 - Stout
  • 16 points - Beer #21-1826, Great American Beer Festival XV, Denver CO, September 28, 1996
    Dark brown, enormous head. Roasty aroma. Black, roasty, long black finish.
