I picked up a six pack last weekend...

It's alright, but no where near as good as some of their other beers. I find it a little bitter.

It's ok.

I'll stick with St. Arnold's, Pyramid Snow Cap, Anchor Steam, and the new Shiner Holiday Cheer isn't bad.

Agreed although the pecan ale is a close 2nd.We like to say it tastes like Christmas trees because its sooo bitter. I know thats not the most articulate critique in the world but I think its rather accurate if you have ever tried it...

It's probably one of my favorites along with Andigator, but I'm not a fan of Amber, Turbo Dog, Restoration Ale, etc.

I didn't think I would like it, but it is reallllly easy to drink. Has a hint of peach and pecan in it, i know fruit in beer...but it isn't bad.

not too great at all. Fall Fest is the way to go right now if you can find it.

Zax (on Barton Springs in Austin) had a cask-conditioned tap going one night last week.
It was so much better than the bottled, which is already quite tasty.
