beertap (4), , Ontario, Canada does not count Aug 5, 2008 Chocolately, fruity nose (actually reminded me of a strong tea, even!). This is a beer that I would drink by itself, and have it sit out of the fridge for 10-15 min before sipping. Doesn’t taste super chocolately to me but something did remind me of Christmas in the flavour. Go figure!
