Winter time! Everybody’s favourite season! Glimmering seas of snow stretching as far as the eye can see. The muffled, but nostalgic sound of traditional carols through your window, as you peacefully sleep in your warm, cozy bed. And big, fluffy snowflakes dancing seductively as they float down on top of everything.
Nevermind shovelling every morning for two hours in the freezing cold. Oh, and drunk kids on vacation shouting after midnight is just great for your beauty sleep!
And the family getting together! And paying half your salary for a damn tree!
Such a swell season! Wow! Magical! At least we got some sweet, gloopy, decadent alcoholic beverages to imbibe on.

BOTTLE 33 CL from Berero. Hazy mahogany, sticky beige head. The dried figs are dominating - sticky and sweet, some dried apricots too, as well as notes of woody hops. The taste is similar - dried fruit and caramel/candies (not really maple syrup) - sweet and low on hops while staying easy drinking. There's some hops in the finish, but even the bitterness seems sweet and candy like. No perceivable alcohol. Overall, not as sophisticated as the red wax seal suggests, but still a nice sweeter kind of winter time beer.
