I last enjoyed this in the late 1990’s. Nice blend of spices, not too strong. My family enjoyed this every winter, we miss it greatly.

I found a six of this hiding in my grandmothers sellar, some were obviously soured but the couple that seemed good overly spiced and lacking any sort of hop.

I was lucky enough to find a sixer of this on a weekend beer hunt. It was still good, after however many years it’s been sitting there, and on par with Anchor’s christmas ale, or any of those. Flavors are delicately and subtly represented, mixing with the natural herbal hoppiness and earthy malts. Truly a great christmas ale.
