Pours very dark amber with a few ruby shiny glimmers in the light. Low tan head for a bit, very thin lace and a few traces.
Smell of sweet roasted malts, faint hints of dark spice and a bit of dark fruit. Doesn't really scream out "christmas".
Taste consists mainly of sweet malts (bit syrupy too), dark bread crust, finishing off in a bit of light coffee (or rather... chickpea coffee?). Faint licorice here and there, faint raisin and burnt sugar. Low bitterness in the finish. Lingering sweetness in the aftertaste, not too great.
Medium body and carbonation. 5.1% abv not enough to warm you up during Christmas.
Not really much, not gross like other sweet malty beers, doesn't live up to its "style", but at least i've had my first beer from Luxembourg.

Brown 33cl bottle, one of many Luxembourg brews given in an exchange for shropshire beers.
Poured into a 'Forbidden Fruit' chalice. very dark for a Vienna lager, but not for a Christmas beer. Ebony black almost, with a tan head that soon left the scene.
No Christmas aroma, just some malt smells, nothing too strong on any front.
Burnt chocolate flavours with maybe some liquorice and coffee towards the end of the aftertaste. It becomes drier also as the aftertaste begins to die away.
A little on the thin side when talking about the body considering it is 5.1% ABV. I have struggled to find a beer from Luxembourg I've truely enjoyed, this is getting towards that goal, but not quiet scoring.
