Aviator Deck the Halls

Brewed by Aviator Brewing Company
Style: Spice/Herb/Vegetable
Fuquay Varina, North Carolina USA

Had this on tap at Rue Cler, Durham. The waiter described it as an interpretation of an old ale, and I suppose that’s fair enough. Ruddy light brown pour, with yeast and a rocky head. Sharp and somewhat boozy nose, with spruce in the nose along with more or less expected sweet toffee malts. Body is a bit thin, but passable. The taste isn’t bad, but it almost feels like it’s waiting to settle into itself a bit, the alcohol not quite suffusing the rest or something. Not bad.
