Dec 25, 2008 Bottle. Pours brown with light tan head. Aroma is roasted malt, brown sugar, nuts, caramel and chocolate. Flavor is chocolate and roasted malt, brown sugar, caramel, molassas and some coffee. Mouthfeel was medium as it was cross between a brown ale and a porter. A nice brew that hides alcohol well.

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!

Dec 20, 2008 16.9 oz. bottle. Dark brown/black with large frothy light brown head. Caramel nose with some fruit. Lots of sweet chocolate and coffee flavor with some caramelized fruit and surprising bitterness from the American hops. Amazing velvety creamy palate is the highlight of this beer. Nice long lasting mild hop finish.
