Ten Days of Darkness

Sweetwater Festive Ale 2014, is an annual favorite of mine and in recent years has become more scarce in my locale. I've found that trying this one "green" is equally as rewarding as the ones I've got aging from 2002! Nice profile changes occur from year to year, but this is the first vintage I grabbed out of the fridge. The cinnamon and mace is still very prevalent and the slick vanilla tones can't be denied. With a thinner body than you'd expect, you can crush them, but at 8.3% I'm not sure how many of them you would be ABLE to crush.
