22 oz bottle poured into a Corsendonk Christmas Ale tulip. Mild light tan head that dissipates quickly to a thin film. A few specs cling to the glass with each sip then quickly disappear. Color is a solid dark ruby red with garnet highlights.
Smell is strongly spiced. Ginger and cloves are dominant with a mild honey sweetness in the background. Taste is a sharp ginger snap. The honey creates a sticky sweetness that almost, but not quite, balances the spice.
Mouthfeel is a full bodied with a mild carbonation. Pretty filling. The spices are so over the top, it would be interesting to age this one to see what happens.

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!
