Great for the holidays. A nice sweet beer to drink after a good dinner. I loved every bit of it.

Pours a translucent copper orange with a two finger creamy off white/tan head. The nose is fruity, earthy, Belgian/yeasty, rummy, light alcohol, some raisin. The flavor is a bit rummy, earthy, some yeast character, estery, warm alcohol, a bit spicy, some fruity character, leaves something wanting. . The palate has a full and lively carbonation and finishes warm.

Bottle... Mostly clear, burnt orange ale with tons of tiny, opaque floaties tooling about. Small, fluffy, off-white head that has big-time staying power. Biscuity, sweaty aroma. Full-bodied with gentle carbonation. Very sweet, boozy and fruity. Moderate bitterness. Tangy, warming finish. <b>Bottle provided by mgumby10!</b>

Medium garnet color with an off white head. Cherries abound in the aroma. Slightly sweet, tart and sour all at once. Alcohol burn at the end of the swallow. Always a great holiday beer.

330 mL bottle- that’s right, I found the little version. Pours a clear, dark ruby with a nice tan head. Great lacing on this one and low carbonation. Aroma is of yeast, dark fruits, candy, cloves. Taste is medium to full-bodied. Starts fruity and spicy but ends with a sort of unpleasant mix of warming alcohol, spice, gingerbread, and sour apple. I guess this is what the Christmas version of Delirium should taste like. I would give it a 3.8 were it not for the pink elephant with a Santa hat on the label.

(Bottle on 2008-11-20) Ruby red colour. Small quicky disappearing fizzy head. Malts and caramel in nose. Fizzy and full bodied palate. Malts, sweetness, some bitterness, some dried plum and tip of cherry like flavours in taste. Bitterness and malts in aftertaste.
