Dark, dark in color, with a sharp, medicinal nose. Flavor is slightly sweet with some dried fruit tastes, mingled with a spice rack full of herbs. Not quite what I would deem tasty, but I can understand the greatness of the beverage.

2007 edition. Pours dark brown with a thick off-white head. Aroma of bread, figs, and a touch of wine. Flavor is malty with a few vinous notes and finishes with a bunch of spice. A good beer overall, but the flavors arent quite as bold as I was hoping.

Pours a light plum color from the bomber with a creamy off-white head and plenty of lacing. Loaded with chewey malts, pie spices, raisin, and a fair amount of alcohol. A great winter warmer.

Pours a cloudy brown with a nice head. Aroma yeasty with fruity esters, chocolate and raw beef - some sort of a oily grain, bran or flax? Tastes of black forest cake, complete with cherries chocolate, and again that bran flavour. Carb & body ok/unremarkable. A bit cloudy, but overall quite enjoyable. Thanks to G for the taste!

Deep red-brown color pour with a lasting and lacy tan head. Big aroma of citrus, yeast, dark fruit, candy and some spice. Nice fruity flavor, with a malty and spicy finish. Smooth and creamy on the palate. Very nice!

courtesy of Tony @ OTH. 07’ bottle. 750ml. Pours reddish/amber, tan head. Aroma is yeasty and sugary Taste, malty, dark fruits, and candi sugar. Comes off with plenty of good "holiday" spices, making this one a definite treat for the season.
