Kerstpater heeft een diepe, donkerbruine kleur met een streepje rood. Het beige schuim verbergt warm alcoholzoet in een bier dat geurt naar chocolade, zoet van karamel en kandij. In de mond komt het kandijsuiker terug, aangenaam gecombineerd met chocoladebitter. De afdronk is lang en zalig zoet.

Classic Christmas ale with deep burgundy colour and thinnish, off-white head. Rich malty and estery aroma, yeasty, fruity with spicy notes, caramelly, chocolate accents, dried orange peel, brown rhum. Malty taste with full and creamy mouthfeel, sweet, candied cherries, port wine, cocoa hints, caramelly, smooth with retronasal spiciness, a toasted hint in the finish, some herbal hops and warming alcohol. Very enjoyable winter warmer, one of the best products of this brewery in my opinion, with good ageing potential too.
