On-tap at Beachwood BBQ,

A: Pours a medium to dark amber with a soft off-white head, solid retention.

S: Caramel English style malt, fairly standard for the style.

T: Lots of caramel corn, diacetyl is there but is pleasing in the style and doesn't take over the beer. Minor Christmas spicing.

M: Light-bodied, clean finish, soft carbonation.

D: An easy drinking Christmas beer, I wish it had more spice complexity, but it's a solid effort.
