Dec 28, 2008 Poured deep black with a two finger head that dissipated to a strong film and left great lacing. Complex aroma profile included coffee, chocolate, caramel, brown sugar, and molasses. Flavor was just as complex, starting out though a bit more subtle, but strengthening with time. Full body, some carbonation, rich sweetish coffe and chocolate aftertaste. A real treat.

Dec 22, 2008 Perfectly balanced ale with medium spice burden. Unlike many other Christmas ales this one is not too sweet and has a wonderfully hopped ending giving it a dry finish. Very nice!
