750ML. Man phew. Unexpected going into this. Deep dark brown with a coca coloured fluffy head. Very fruity and sweet. Malty aroma. Yeasty. taste of banana, raison, vanilla and cinnamon. Alchohol afterbite, nice hit. Perfect Christmas brew on the eve of Christmas Eve. This thing is a dessert in itself!~! Too bad you cant flambe this over some bananas. mmmmm . Kinda scothy finish for me. Ill be picking a few more of these up. 10% alchy. Wonder how it will age.

Aug 31, 2008 Bu au Festival Bière et Saveur 08 (31/8), en bouteille au kiosk de Brouhaha. Ambrée noisette, très peu de collet. Arome de caramel anglaise malté mentale, avec des notes de mélasse légé. Goût de caramel anglaise licoreuse, bien malté, pas si alcoolisé et un peu sûterre. Bonne bière de Noël pour la Fête du Travail!

Aug 31, 2008 Thanks to Dave from By the Bottle for letting me in on a two-year-old bottle of this. Poured a dark brown, effervescent body with a medium off-white head. Nutty, mildly cardboardy, brown sugary, candied, and spicy. Apples, sweets, malts, bubblegum, and coriander flavors. Held up well being cellared. Great tasting complex beer.

Aug 21, 2008 11.2 oz. bottle from Market Street Wine Shop Downtown Charlottesville dated 03/08/10. Hazy reddish brown with a big head. Moderate retention and low lacing. Aroma is banana, spice, pineapple, spice. Sweet taste shows notes of pinepple, anise, brown sugar. Alcohol is barely noticeable if at all in either the nose or the taste. Very nice way to end the evening!

Aug 18, 2008 On tap. Dark brown beer, beige head. Aroma of candy, christmas spice, malts. Flavour is very sweet, a bit sour, christmas spice (speculaas), roasted malts. Again, like most of their beers, way too sweet for me.
