Dec 20, 2008 On tap at the Bocktown, nice place. A very expensive brew! Pretty dark but appears without a haze. Mild olfactory of mint or perperment in the aroma. Interesting old world flavors greet the tongue. Creamy taste bud impressions but barely any carbonation. Comes across a little strong and at 10% it is. Perhaps more personality than this lager lover can appreciate. Fun to try but would not by again. Long alky linger on finish. S6L4F2T3O7

Dec 18, 2008 bottle- smell was hot, phenolic, and unpleasant- taste however was smooth, delicious, and left me wanting a few more sips- Alcohol well hidden, and the flavor was tasty.

Dec 18, 2008 Bottle shared. Pours dark with a big head. Aroma of malt, sugar, fruit, yeast, spice. Taste was similar. There are tons of dark fruit and sugar in this beer. The yeast gives good balance. Mouth is very nice, coating and full. Finish is warming. Overall, the best Christmas beer Ive had, and IMO the best of our winter ale tasting. This is what you would think a belgian Christmas ale would taste like.

Dec 17, 2008 Bottle pours very dark brown with a thick head. The head lasts and laces the glass as you drink it. Has a subtle aroma of cinnamon, dark fruit and holiday spices. Flavors follow suit with a yeasty undertone. Has a nice sweet finish. Nice brew.

Dec 16, 2008 Nice burgundy brown color poured into a Gouden Carolus glass. Wonderful aroma of brown sugar and stone fruits. Initial flavor of plum and a little cinnamon that slowly warmed and left an excellent aftertaste after swallowed. High alcohol content barely evident as this one was enjoyed. Make sure to bring a bottle to Christmas.
