Figgy Pudding Imperial Brown Ale.

We’ve gone all out to produce this big hitting winter ale. Belgian candi sugar, figs, sultanas and orange peel combined with an array of darker malts and fermented on a Belgian Abbaye strain of yeast will certainly ensure you’re living that exorbitant lifestyle.

Just in time for Xmas evening...
L- Mid chestnut brown, pours with 3mm pale tan head. I rested the can (gently) half-way through the pour and notable sediment lifted for pouring the 2nd half. Doesn't bother me but it might some others.
S- Hints or orange, likely more but I'm congested this pm
T- Rich, deep-fruits, there is also quite a prominent piquant note perhaps bitter orange plus some light spicing. There is quite a liquor-ish type of note, so either the 11%ABV is loud-and-proud here, or as can happen the rich/bright notes almost amplify the sense of ABV%.
F- Deep, rich, pungent, it is indeed well suited to Xmas, or winter as a whole. One for slow-sipping, it's too full-on for me to rush.
O- Very enjoyable. Full on taste-wise with a hefty enough feel to support it.
