3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Nearly black beer with a small brownish head. Cheesy, hops (first X-mas beer supporting hops) and a bit of chocolate, ending spicey. Sweet, liqueurish sweet, with again a bit of (milk) chocolate, spices and moccha. Medium bodied at best. Roasted malts, even some burning MF. Slightly surprising, but not undeserving beer. It’s just not a big hoot.

Bottle. Dark brown with a beige head. Yeast, brown sugar and chocolate in aroma, though it’s very vague hence the low score. Roasted malts, chocolate, sweetness and a burnt bitterness. A lot of carbonation. Didn’t excite me much nor my dad, but my mom enjoyed it. I might be trying this again though...
