Dec 24, 2005 (Bottled) Very clear, golden color with a smallish but tight head. Very mild, dryish apple-cidery aroma with some Duvel character, and yeast. Quite hoppy and bitter, somewhat acidic and slightly sour flavor with smooth maltiness in the background. Bitter, but still quite smooth and malty mouthfeel with soft carbonation. A quite nice, dry and somewhat Duvelish brew, although I can’t see the Christmas connection here...

Dec 23, 2005 Updated: Apr 30, 2006Was a little different in name. So, maybe can be difficult to find here. It was a little soft, but very good in flavour. Dark too.

Dec 9, 2005 Updated: Sep 16, 2007Bottled 0,25L. Compact and adherent foam, good persistence. Yellow/orange much fraught color; lightly fizzy. Enough stable. Rich and complex scent; notes of sweet malty and cellar, light talk of must and clear withered grape. Pungent taste, much alcoholic and mellow. It seems aged and enhanced of aromas. Long and sweetish final. Overbearing and long-lasting alcohol.

Jun 22, 2005 (Bottle 25 cl) Golden beer with a nice, white head. Sweetish in the beginning but a fruity freshness balances thing very well. Not very full-bodied or bitter. Another very unusual Belgian Christmas beer - nice that they vary so much in style. 260198

Jun 14, 2005 An amber beer with a nice off-white head. The is quite complex, with notes of spices, coriander, yeast, caramel, wood, as well as slight alcohol. The flavor is a bit dusty, form the spices, where coriander are most dominant, but it also contains notes of yeast and caramel, the dustyness keeps on being present thruout giving it a dry end. After awhile the alcohol burns thru leaving some warmth.
