14oz glass at the (actual) tap takeover at the Common - yup, all of their taps are Parallel 49 right now! This one is apparently made with the same ingredients that go into Challah bread - oi!
This beer appears a clear, medium copper amber colour, with one skinny finger of weakly puffy, loosely foamy, and wispy dirty white head, which leaves a bit of random island group lace around the glass as things quickly abate.
It smells of sugary bready caramel malt, muddled earthy spice (maybe a bit of cinnamon standing out), ethereal light orchard fruit, and mild leafy and floral hops. The taste is more rather sweet caramel malt, candy-like fruit - like that indecipherable crap-studded fruitcake thing - wayward yeast, mixed and still hard to discern earthy spice, and some tame leafy and slightly perfumed floral hoppiness.
The carbonation is quite light on its mostly frothy feet, the body an adequate middleweight, and generally smooth, with a wee airy creaminess arising as the glass warms on the table in front of me. It finishes still sweet - equally bready and generically fruity.
Not being at all familiar with the titular Jewish confection, I have to believe that it is that culture's version of the aforementioned Christmas inedible. As for its suitability for brewing, I guess if you like sweet, fruity ales, then this will certainly work for you.
