Pours a reddish dark brown with a finger of beige head. The nose is surprisingly delicate - there's only a faint hint of spruce tree in the background. The flavor, however, is like a liquid Xmas tree - the spruce overwhelms the flavor of the base beer.

On tap at the brewery.

A - Deep ruby / garnet color with cream colored lacing.

S - Aroma is abnormally light with delicate malt (if that).

T - Unobtrusive sweet malt base (very light on the flavor) and ends with a very well balanced finish of spruce bitterness.

M - Thick mouthfeel that's silky soft and somewhat lip smacking sticky on the lips.

O - The ABV is very well hidden and goes down easily. Very well balanced.
