ogivlado (2391), Zagreb, Croatia May 13, 2008 Bottled(250ml). -Dark golden coloured, medium sized lasting white head, malty caramel nose. The taste is also very malty, light fruity and caramel with notes of spices and few alcohol hints. Boring Noël. Thomas_E (5065), Copenhagen, Denmark May 8, 2008 Clear fully golden colour with a small white head. Malty, fruity and spicy aroma and taste with an alcohol sweet note. larsga (2311), Oslo, Norway Feb 18, 2008 Medium offwhite head. Copper body with light carbonation. Fruity, lemony aroma with notes of lime. Sweetish fruity lemony taste, again with a kind of lime background. Clean, medium mouthfeel. Dry malty caramelly aftertaste dominated by the same lemon/lime character. Not terribly complex, and extremely unusual, but quite OK. This is really the beer Corona should have been. What the association with Christmas could possibly be I really couldn’t say. (0.65l bottle from the wine monopoly.) gunnfryd (2743), Kristiansand, Norway Feb 10, 2008 Bottle. Dark golden colour with an off-white head. Aroma is dry, sweet, yeast. Flavour is dry, sweet, yeast, citrus, spices. Not a christmas beer, but i like it in a way. Finn (1092), Tromsø, Norway Jan 30, 2008 Bottle 0,65l. Golden colored. A shortlived creamy head. Aroma of berries. The flavor is dominated by sweet fruit and berries. Sourish bitter finish. No Christmas feeling at all. Label design better than the content.KI=4
