Nicely balanced spice in this one...some nutmeg, cinnamon, and brown sugar more noticeable in the foam than the beer itself. Caramel, malt, and raison both in the nose and flavor. Really enjoyed this one.

Dec 17, 2009 Bottle. Pours a clear amber with a medium off-white head that laced nicely. Aroma is full of malty notes with undertones of nutmeg and cinnamon. The spices are not as prevalent in the flavor with a sweet caramel note dominating the beginning and more of a grainy finish with a bit of piney hops.

Dec 14, 2009 A Mes rate. Bottle at the Rake.
Thanks Caspar for the shout for this. RIch amber colour with a very good off white head. Good cheesey malt aroma with lots or caramel and faint notes of creme brûlée. Flavour is big burnt caramel and christmas spice. Certainly a Christmas beer, as to if it’s one I think is good, erm... No. Too sweet, too much caramel malt, not enough character. Decent but far from great.
