Christmas beer issued by Multi-Brasses for their first holiday season of operations.
Deep chestnut brown pour highlighted by lovely burgundy rays when held to the light. A generous head of off-white foam forms atop the liquid but dissipates too quickly. A healthy amount of lacing does stay behind however.
Aromas are somewhat overdone as a tsunami of ginger washes the olfactory senses leaving behind little room for some cloves and cinnamon, and none for any maltiness or hoppiness. Interesting at first, but such a lack of depth to the aromas really hurts the aroma score.
A blatant infection marrs the flavour profile right out of the gate as a rather unpleasant tartness wrestles with the spices for dominance of the taste. Aftertaste of band-aids and wet cardboard are lingering and tenacious... forcing me to dump this down the drain.
The first beer I had from this brewery contained this same infection but to a much lesser degree, making the experience much more pleasant. This is sadly just undrinkable. Multi-Brasses will need to streamline their bottling process to avoid such unfortunate results.
