Cigar City Warmer Winter Winter Warmer

My buddy Matt brought over a bottle of Cigar City Warmer Winter Winter Warmer to share. The beer pours a brown color with a frothy beige colored head. The aroma consists of caramel, sugar, citrus hints, and raisin. The taste is smooth and malty with plenty of caramel and raisin flavors on the front end. There is a bit of a boozy and warming finish with some pepper and a bit of plum flavors. The alcohol content 10.0% ABV. As far as winter warmers, Cigar City’s was a solid offering. It was boozy and sweet, but had enough balance in citrus and pepper to keep it from being overly sweet.
