Bottle from Ohtsuki Saketen. Prearis X-mas 5% A beautiful honey gold with a peppery herbal hop bouquet, stone fruits, honey and biscuits. Not at all what I was expecting. Medium to light bodied and dry. The taste is a fruity Belgian pale ale with some sweetness at first but then you get piney hops bitterness. A fun Christmas beer that is slightly non-traditional. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Préaris @ Café Congé tasting event by the Gentse Biervereniging, Ghent (26 October 2017). With Anke. Cheers to Andy, Erwin & Tim!
Pours clear dark golden with a diminishing, frothy, off-white head. The aroma contains malt, (flowery) hops, herbs & spices, some caramel. It tastes light malty sweet and medium to light spicy bitter with a medium long herbal finish, bit dry. Medium body, slick/watery texture, soft carbonation. Not really what I expected from a Christmas beer, but the pun on the label made up for that.

Bottled 330ml. -from Magic Beer Room Zagreb. Pale golden coloured, small white head, mild citrusy nose. Grapefruity and mild herbal hoppy, moderate bitterness, notes of grass and touch of spices in rather bitter finish and aftertaste. Not really a X-mas beer but quite nice.

At a tasting, thanks, very little head, cloudy deepish orange color, aroma of honey, wax and candy in the back, flavor of honey, fruit and green peppers in the back, a bit harsh. Not that great.

Thanks Iznogud! Poured a misty golden body with a big white head. Dusty aroma, orange and yeastiness. Yeasty, creamy taste, orange again, slightly soapy, a tart touch. Interesting and drinkable but a bit messy.

Very good, irregular cream-yellowish head, stable over clear metallic copper-orange beer. Very fresh malts, and noble hops in the nose, bit grassy and gassy; fresh herbs. Bitter-hoppy flavour with just a sign of malty underbuild. Again fresh, bitter herbs. Medium bodied, very well-carbonated without fizziness Gives the impression to be stronger than its claimed %. Bitter metallic tang in the aftetaste. Quite good. Starting to appreciate the Préaris realisations better and better.
