Poured a clouded orange-brown with a rocky tan head. Poured this into a Delirium Noel tulip glass. Nose is sweetened spice. Candy sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon, some fruit and alcohol all vie for the attention of your olfactory senses. The spice is much more evident in the taste. Cinnamon, nutmeg, perhaps apple and banana, along with alcohol melding into a strongly carbonated body. There's a spiced spritz on the tongue during the finish. The flavor remains on the palate long after the gulp has been swallowed. Nice stuff! An improvement over the standard DT beer!

Bottle. Dark brown beer with a strong bubbly head. The aroma is light sweet fruits and the flavour is quite sweet, lightly rich and slightly vinous. Overall quite a nice gentle tasting beer.

750 ml bottle - Market Sq. Liquors in Tallahassee, Fl. Pours a medium burnt copper color with a silky smooth khaki head, lots of carbonation. Aroma has some clean spicy notes with a sweet, pruney undertone. Flavor has some delicate date notes with raisins, candied sugar and perhaps some cherries. Blended together well. Mouthfeel is thick and creamy and the alcohol at 10% ais barely noticeable.

2006 Vintage 750 I’ve had in my cellar for a while shared with my girlfriend Cyn and friends. Pours bubbly copper with a tan 1 finger head. Nose is sweet and light and spied. Taste is sweet a little like apple cider, spicy and highly driinakble.

Dark brown and red color, big lasting beige head. Strongly spicy aroma, mild caramel and sweetness, also some alcohol in aroma. Medium to full bodied. Caramel, spices, medium alcohol in flavor, spices last in aftertaste with some alcohol and dryness, but not for very long. Nice lace in glass. Fine christmas brew.

Cloudy dark color, small lasting head. Small yeast particles floating around. Acidic aroma, malty, licorice. Malty taste, strong. Bitter dry palate, alcoholic. Heavily overrated stuff.

Tasted this weekend, and as always Ilike anything Delirium!!! Dark brownish pour wtih a medium sized head. Smell is a malt-fest with booze and sweet fruit. Taste is sweet with some spice, yeast, dried fruit and a really nice mouthfeel. Bingo.

2007 Vintage. Cork "pop" was somewhat subdued but the beer was still well carbonated. Very dark thick amber with a fair soft head. Aroma of candy sugar, caramel and alcohol with some nice spice notes that register later. Tastes just like the aroma. Sweet, light syrup, caramel and soft spice. Just a bit of alcohol burn in the finish.
