Nice red pour with small head. Peaches jump out on the nose. Tastes like applesauce and peaches. Kind of watery feel. Interesting but I doubt ill have another.

@Jethro’s Drake-lt tan-copper. A-fruit-cherry/peach, butter rum, some med malt. T-med malt-roasty, fruit, 2nd hop balances the sweet.

A beer that will pair excellent with fruitcake if you like fruitcake. Holiday Cheer pours a dark brown with a fruit scent, peaches are the most obvious. It drinks rather smooth as you get a semi-mild taste of different fruits ending in an ever so slight spice. Out of all the beers I’ve tried to date, this has to be my favorite. The only way to improve this to a 10 of 10 is by adding a slight more texture and taste to it. A beer that will pair excellent with fruitcake if you like fruitcake.

Definitely a must try if you can find it.
