Nov 8, 2004 Mild toffe, vinuous quality... a bit tart and syrpy. Dark malt sweetness but not bitter chocolate, more like maple or molasses

Oct 30, 2004 Again, another Belgian with an amazing tendency to explode from the bottle. The yeast here is actually surprisingly mellow in contrast to the rest of the flavor, which is fruity, musty, and a touch cidery. Slightly sour, but enough malt base to keep it grounded as well as keep it within the "holiday ale" spectrum.

Aug 21, 2004 Pours light brown/red with piles of sediment in suspension. Looks like snowflakes. Spiced chocolate malt aroma. Very peppery with a good carbonation and mouthfeel. Cocoa, vanilla, green berries/grape, and wine notes. Quite dry. Light hops and yeast in the finish.

Jul 19, 2004 Poured a hazy brownish colr with a off white head. Light malty aroma and tastes with some spices. OK but I’ve had better X-Mas beers.

Jun 29, 2004 No aroma. Mild or weak flavour. Quite boring. Some sourness and loads of carbonation.

Jun 18, 2004 Faint aroma of malt, toffee, and molasses. Hazy ruby brown color, off-white head dissipates quickly. Flavor is plainly malty, a little spiciness and herbal hop flavor are present but weak. Highly carbonated, medium body. Nothing to write home about.

May 2, 2004 Loaded with all sorts of scary floaties; lovely, fruity, candi nose; head quickly dissipates; flavorful malt presence that’s rather restrained with light spicing and a mild, slightly sour finish; very good, but not much of a winter-beer, and $2.56/8.4oz?, certainly not worth that.....
