"Zinnebir X-Mas? No, WINTER MESS!
The name has changed, not the recipe! Our winter beer is back, with her caramel and chocolate flavours, the creamy foam, her fruity nuances, and her dry and bitter finish."

(Bottle 33 cl) Courtesy of yespr/Ungstrup. Hazy, amber golden with a dense and lively, off-white head that leaves some lacework. Fresh, lightly spicy, floral aroma. Medium body, a little low in carbonation. Notes of sweet fruit and caramel and a somewhat astringent, herbal and very bitter finish. 120108

Pours deep amber into a snifter. Tan head with good retention slowly recedes to skim surface leaving no lacing. Clean malt and pit fruit aromas. Bittersweet caramel upfront with a lasting, puckering grapefruit pit finish. Made my lips tingle.
