Dec 12, 2008 Pour is a hazy amber with a average white head. Aroma is some dark fruit with a bit of pepper and brown sugar. Flavor is more of a spice than anything. Some musty barnyard is left on the tounge after the swallow. Not much else shows up but i guess for a x-mas ale that is what they were going for. Still its pretty tasty and the 10% is nowhere to be found.

Dec 9, 2008 750, I bought at Obriens when I was there tonight. Ive been thinking about having this for a long time and went for it tonight. Bottle was a foamer while I was in the kitchen which was obnoxious. Pours dark brown with a tan head. Nose is rich and malty with a bit of vinious quality. Taste is sweet with deep rich bitter chocolate flavors, and some rich burnt coffee. This is a big big beer, and its kinda crazy. Big strange and damn unique, another classic from Fantome.
