So! We had 8 varieties of seasonal ale, and we resolved to taste test them.

About the tasters:

Peter
Likes darker beers and ales.
Tracy
Generally likes brown ales, not into very dark beers, was very hungry during the time of the test, which may have skewed her results towards the sweeter beers.
Allison
Likes light girly beers. The ones you give to people when you are trying to get them to like beer. Ruby ales and the occasional IPA.

The rankings, from best to worst

It looks like the winner for our house is the Ebenezer Ale! Now you know, and knowing is half the battle.

Science rules!
