Sample from bottle, pours a clear orange amber with a small white head. Aroma of Xmas spices (nutmeg, cinnamon), turnip and toasted bread. Flavour of metallic notes, watery bread, and light Xmas spices. Very weak and watery. Not good.

Amber and bright. The aroma is gingers and mildly spicy. Thin, messy with bland amber and a bunch of incoherent spices. Boring.

This tastes exactly like it would taste if an ale had cinnamon and some other spices thrown into it. There is just no jiving together of this stuff, it’s way out of balance. Certainly a poor attempt at a Christmas ale, but then again, we did manage to finish the bottle!

Bottled. An amber beer with a thin lazing beige head. The aroma has notes of malt, caramel, and spices. The flavor is sweet with notes of cloves, cardemomme, malt, and caramel, leading to a dry spicy finish. Thanks fiulijn for sharing.

Bottle from Big Ridge Liquor Store, Surrey
Amber color; medium sized head. Aroma of gingerbread cookies (dry, not sweet), hazelnuts and light cinnamon. The body is weak; some (dryish) caramel flavor, but well blended with delicate Christmas spices. Simple, at least not excessive as other Christmas beers.
