Wasatch Winterfest Ale

From 2010: I'd not heard of the Utah Beer Cooperative before, but I'm glad that I did. Pretty strong, and not just from the 7% ABV. Lots of piney hops flavor, caramel brown color, tall tan head. Very creamy. Not a lot of "extra" flavor, just good ol' American brewing ingenuity!

New notes: I had forgotten that Winterfest was the first Wasatch beer that I had tried, or at least reviewed. Still pretty damn good! This time I'm detecting some orange peel and maybe a little nutmeg and a trace of cinnamon. Wasatch has shaped up to be one of the most solid breweries that I have sampled over the years. Looking forward to many, many more!
