Appearance: Pours a clear, dark reddish-brown body with a small, ivory-colored head.
Smell: Brown malts with a holiday scent parade of cinnamon, nutmeg, orange peel, candied ginger, dried fruits, and a sprinkle of brown sugar.
Taste: Sweet and spicy, with the ginger leading the pack, followed close by the cinnamon and nutmeg. Hint of cocoa powder. Tangy fruitiness. Mild woody hops. Finishes relatively sweet with another dose of the nutmeg.
Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium carbonation. Lightly sticky mouthfeel.
Drinkability: Somewhat cloying and a bit too overspiced for me.

A- Half-inch bubbly head, dark amber/brown beer. Mediocre head retention and lacing.
S- Faint spices. Not getting much from the nose (due to age?).
T- Woo. Sweet, honey. Well hidden alcohol. Some spices, little hops.
M- Smooth, creamy. Nice carbonation still.
D/O- I actually really liked this. TATURBO supplied this out of his cellar after being there for who knows how long. Very sweet. Never heard or seen this one before. Thanks Chris!
