Father John's Winter Ale, Howe Sound Brewing, BC

I'm not a huge fan of the Howe Sound Brewery. Its good beer, but I've never had anything that really stuck in my mind as great.

Until now. We all really liked this, even Marie (who's not much of a beer drinker, usually). It was a brown, slightly sweet ale, and lightly spiced. Hard to tell what spices (maybe a bit of cardamon?), but very tasty. It's 1 litre bottle disappeared almost instantly...


$7.88/L, 8%ABV (if you believe the website), 7 %ABV (if you believe the label), but who's counting?
