Dec 13, 2005 A somewhat off-putting sour vinegar nose. This tastes sour as well but better that it smells. Very bitter finish which helped pull my rating up a couple.

Dec 11, 2005 Amber/brown and headless, this has a taste of soft caramel malt, slightly sour, with an earthy, floral hop bitterness. The aroma is a bit funky, sour and musty. It finishes on a nice bitter note. Quite drinkable. <font size=-4><a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/events-detail.asp?eve & Winter Beer Tasting at Delilah’s, Chicago, IL 12/10/2005<font size=-1>

Dec 10, 2005 A Mes rate:
A 2004 33cl bottle from the Beer Circus. Nice dusty and hoppy but mellow aroma. Hazy amber appearance with a white head that settles quickly to a thin film. Well balanced with some anaseed and oranges. Gentle crisp and spicy finish.

Dec 2, 2005 Vinous, hoppy nose - nice. Hazy deep gold color, lacy head. Quick sweet malt with hints of white grape and spice. Hoppy end. Thinner than expected, but overall decent. Not as Christmasy as one would want though...

Nov 24, 2005 Bottle shared by Geno5. Cloudy orange color with a mediuml off white head. Fruity, tart aroma with some hay and hops that come together to remind me of vomit a little bit. Flavor was better than the aroma I thought. Still a bit fruity and hoppy with some grassiness. Kind of mild flavored for a Christmas beer.

Nov 12, 2005 On tap. Amber colour. Unclear. Nice lace head. Sour unpleasant aroma. Very hoppy flavour, not what you may expect. But overall a different christmas beer.
