Huge creamy beige head on a clear amber colored body! Absolutely beautiful!! Nose of sweet malt and nut. Sweet very fruity flavor with tones of nut, caramel and oranges. A small touch of alcohol. This beer is truly yummi and my new favorite christmas brew!

This beer has a light yellow body - hue apperance and a fine white scum collar. I have drunk the beer from the bottle and it had a low carbonic acid. The initial flavor taste is sweet.

Golden amber colour. Phenolic, peachy aroma. Similar palate with added toasty malts. Complex, and worth re-visiting so I can enjoy a whole bottle.

Really wonderful--huge aroma with touches of roses, spice, apples, honey and caramel. Flavor is very full and moderately sweet, with hints of honey and caramel and a very slight touch of smokiness. Occasional breezes of vanilla and nutmeg drift across the tongue. Finishes very dry, with hints of alcohol. An ideal Christmastime brew.

I really like the hops in this one, very aromatic and spicy. Candi and caramel sweetness. Nice warming finish.

Cloudy peach with a frothy head. Steady carbonation. Cardamom, honey, caramel and musty yeast in the nose. Very effervescent (although not too much and not spritzy). Huge conglomeration of flavors at first. Spicy yet sweet with a little tartness and a peppery bite. Musty undertow with powdery, chalky malts beneath the spice. Yeast adds some thickness to the body and also tempers the spice a little. Alcohol taste swirls in and out but is not invasive. Decent winter seasonal. Nice bottle with a gold cobweb lacing on the outside.
