Taster on tap at Les Brasseurs à Genève, Geneva. Clear chestnut coloured with a moderate, off-white head. Malty and spicy aroma; a bit like ginger bread or Christmas cake. Not too bad flavour wise, quite enjoyable winter warmer with a Christmas touch.

Hazy orange to amber colour, minimal off-white head, aroma and taste of orange peel, ginger bread, slight dark chocolate, dried fruits and burnt plum jam... Ok, but why the hell is it categorized ad belgian blond ale?...

From tap at the brewpub. Pours hazy dark brown with a small tan head. Aroma is roasted and light spiced. Sweet, spiced and roasted malty flavoured. Light phenolic and roasted malty into the finish. Lasting roasted and spiced impression. --- Beer aliased from original tick of La Bière de Noël on 19 Dec 2009 at 08:49 - Score: Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 7. Original review text: From tap at the brewpub. Pours hazy to murky dark brown with a small tan head. Again looking darker than Geneva and a lot different than Lausanne. Roasted malty aroma, light spiced. Mild spiced with annis seed and distinct yeasty flavoured. Slight phenolic and sweet caramelish into the finish. Lasting phenolic and dark roasted malty into the far finish.
