I enjoy this. Tastes very much like some sort of Christmas ale? -- spiced like one, at least. Cinnamon and clove up front with a caramel sweet finish. Not at all cloying. Not a ton of depth and not a crazy unique "must-try" beer, but it's tasty now, and would be great around the holidays. Hides the heat well, but it'll still warm you up. Worth a try, for sure.

 

 

Received as an extra in a trade.

A - Poured into a Kate the Great tulip a nice clearish chestnut hue with a thin head that fades to leave light wisps.

S - Aromas of Belgian esters, dark sugars, sweet malts. Very weird spice notes. Weird banana bread like notes too.

T - Taste is more Belgian ester, very doughy, loads of banana bread like. Super weird spice notes, rather assertive.

M - Mouthfeel is nicely carbonated, smooth, alcohol hidden nicely.

O - Overall this was a solid beer, very interesting spice notes though. The Belgian characteristics are solid.

Serving Type: bottle
