Beer of the Week Blast from the Past: Solstice Winter Ale

Beer score: 5.6

The Wynkoop Brewing Company out of Denver, Colorado, used to make this beer. It was a bit on the sweet side, but it was supposed to be a winter brew, many of which have the whole cinnamon and nutmeg thing going. This was a seasonal brew, and not bad. It smelled and tasted somewhat like dark bread, but had more of that winter spice taste than I personally like.
