(Draught at Bishop’s Arms Folkungagatan, Stockholm, 12 Dec 2015) Black colour with dense, beige head. Malty, roasted nose with notes of coffee, caramel, toffee, chocolate, cinnamon and nutmeg. Malty, roasted taste with chocolate, coffee, caramel, dark rye bread, orange peel, spicy hints of nutmeg and cinnamon and a balanced spicy bitterness. Medium body, quite dry. Tasty, spicy and well balanced winter warmer. Nice one.

(Keg at Punavuoren Ahven, 20141220) The beer poured black. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had liquorice, Belgian style yeast and roasted malts. Palate was rahter full bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were Belgian style yeast, fruitiness, burnt malts, spices, sweetness and bitterness. Aftertaste was roasty and bitter. A weird combination of spicy yeast and burnt malts. Not really bad but I wouldn’t have another one.

Tap @ölhus Stockholm. Black colored with a lacing off white head. Smooth stuff. Xmas spices, wood mostly in aroma. Flavor has spicy notes, dark bready notes, nutmeg perhaps the clearest. Tough to rate this one. Truly a Xmas brew though. God jul!

Draught @ Black Door as "CAP Silent Night." Aroma is somewhat spicy with licorice and hints of toffee. Flavour has peppery spices, some clove, licorice and hints of coffee. Spices are too dominant here.
