Blue Point's Winter Ale poured a clear, brown color with a finger width, off white head.  The aroma was malty with some hops.  The first sip is malty before a blast of bitter hops.  The finish is hoppy with a lingering dryness.  The body is full-bodied, deep, and smooth.  There is a decent amount of hanging lace left on the glass.  Overall, this is a solid, winter ale.  This is a big beer that is well-balanced and quite tasty. 

The ultimate resource for beer drinkers!
