Deep ruby red with a very thin head, roasted malt and port aroma, complex taste of roast malt, toffee, coffee, almost sweet sherry, very festive, like a Christmas party in your mouth. Absolutely loved it, the commercial description says "Created in the thirties, Gordon Xmas initiated the tradition of Christmas brews" I wish they were all this good.

33cl bottle bought in Belgium. Pours a deep dark red with a fine creamy head. Taste is initially sweet and creamy, with roasty malt, plums, cinnamon, drying hops, lots of alcohol, finish is dry-bitter but just a bit harsh.

Flaske: Brun øl med et lille skumhoved. Filtreret. Sød duft med en smule krydderi. Smagen er ok, alkohol rimelig skjult, men ikke en spændende øl på nogen måde.
