Bottle 33 cl. Pours a hazy amber with a creamy yellowish head. Spicy nose - typical Xmas cookie spices. Medium body, sweet, spicy cookie dough flavour, a little yeast. Ends dryish. Kinda puzzling why Coisbo introduces a new subbrand with beers exactly as mainstream as their primary brand. Maybe meant primarily for Vinmonopolet - poor Norwegians. 260116

33cl as a gift. Pours clear amber to caramel coloured with a modest, off-white head. Malty and fairly caramelly with notes of Christmas spices. Medium sweet, fairly mild flavours and not much bitterness. Quite easy to drink and fairly standard Christmas beer. Fair enough. --- Beer merged from original tick of Undercover Christmas Ale on 19 Dec 2015 at 18:38 - Score: 6

Bottle. Pours hazy dark golden, with an off white creamy head. Aroma is sweet spices up front, and roasted malts with bread, toffee and kandi. Full body, with average carbonation. Flavour is roasted malts with bread, caramel, kandi and chocolate, as well as some earthy notes and spices. Christmasy and drinkable, but nothing special.
