Yeeow! Especially for the holidays, a brown ale with real attitude! The malts used to make Warm Welcome are roasted to give a hearty amber-brown color and a warm, rounded nutty taste. This fine ale is dedicated to all you curious brew-lovers out there who ever had serious questions about Santa's supposed arrival by way of the chimney. (How does he do that, anyway?)

"This poured a deep brown with medium head Aromas of malt with some brown sugar and nuts. I have been lucking out finding well balanced beers and ales that are simply enjoyable with no one flavor or aroma kicking you in the head. This did not disappoint. A nut brown ale that is subtle and quiet that could be enjoyed with some nice aged cheddar."

"While this was a fairly good beer I have to say that the most impressive part was the appearance. This poured a nice, deep amber color with a good sized head....very appealing looking. The aroma was somewhat malty but not overly powerful. The taste was a bit subtle and smooth with a blend of malts and spices coming through."

"How many Christmas themed beers can a brewery make? Is there any other brewery on earth that comes close to making this many Christmas themed beers? Damn. Perfectly clear brown (just brown, no special qualifiers this time). The head is big bubbled and airy. The aroma is a light maltiness, a touch of nuts of course. The flavor is pleasantly malty, but a touch thin. Not bad, but a definitely boring. The label is more interesting than the beer."

"NorCal tasting Jan 07 - This was hard to stomach. The first impressions of the aroma on this beer was garbage. Litterally, it reminded me of smelly garbage. Another person thought it was like vomit. Not good. The appearance had something going for it, as it was a clear, chesnut brown with a smallish head. Palate was thin and watery, with a blah flavor with nothing really standing out, except perhaps some sweetness. It finished dry. Pretty forgettable stuff. Funny label though."
