3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20
02.10.05 750ml bottle, cork date 13./03, whatever that means. Orangish amber pour; hardly any head. Not pretty by any means with hunks of gelatinous gunk floating all throughout. But the first sniff is terribly inviting. Reminds of DeDolle Stille Nacht with its brown sugar, plums, apples, some spiciness, and extra anticipated yumminess. Flavor is no letdown, like a Stille Nacht light, less sweet. Still, it’s a nice blend of cooked fruit flavors like apple, plum, green grape, cherry, pear. A real treat except for the hunks of junk that drift about the palate and tickle the throat. Otherwise, a pleasant surprise. The beer finishes cleanly with a lingering bite.

3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
UPDATED: SEP 14, 2008 Notches seem to indicate March, 2006 bottling date. Pours dark copper-brown with large head that fizzes away rather quickly. Aroma is dark fruit, yeasty alcohol, occasional sour cherries and slight bubblegum. Taste is the same, with toffee and alcohol aftertaste. Alcohol is not so well-hidden in this one and is a bit fiery at times (which is why you drink this one at Xmas, not May, you dumbass!). Palate is slightly dryish, pretty smooth and highly carbonated. Typical Delirium, just higher ABV.

3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle from Jim’s Foodmart - Houghton, MI Pours a rusty golden, with a silky lacing head of ivory and amber. Aroma is wicking spicy fig and pear, with heavy vinous tart grape skins and light floral cognac. Flavor is an intense heavy malt, mulled with a touch of spice and blended with a biting yeasty bread crust and a touch of wheat. Complex and fulfulling with a real glowing character. Unfortunately the alcohol comes on a little hot. Back end runs with light floral fruits and light colored fruits like pears, apricots, and apples. A hint of white chocolate. Finishes with a good smack in the face from the alcohol. Deliciously warming though.
