Commercial Description:
Kringle Krack Strong Winter Ale is characterized by its huge malt profile that is blended with three different Northwest hops. This big, dark ale is aged eight months for a smooth, balanced finish. This beer is perfect for those cold winter nights sitting by the fire. Kris Kringle approved!

On tap at the 2007 Holiday Ale Festival. Dark amber with a small beige head. Very nice display of hops and malt, no excess alochol present. Toasted earthy malt flavor up front, caramel, and almost fig sweet flavor. Hops were there, but not enough to balance, but this style is usually pretty sweet, good warming winter brew.

Holiday Ale Fest 2007--Poured a deep coal amber hue with a medium off-white head. RIch, earthy nose and malty presence. Hoppy, fruity, piny finish is mildly cloying. Biting, rich and creamy finish.
