Can via Uba Ja Humal. Med-full body, medium carbonation. High seeetness, medium bitterness, light pleasant warmth. Shitloads of chocolate maltiness, low deep roast. Lots of spices, a pleasant tasty mix. Very nice festive sipper, relatively easy to drink too. Very good.

330ml can as part of a delivery from House of Trembling Madness, York and drunk at home. Dark brown and only a little bit translucent with a quickly dissipating tan head. Sweet milky aroma with chai spices - cinnamon and nutmeg especially - at the forefront. Tastes decent if a little bit jarring with the hitherto unchallenged sweetness running into a jarring juxtaposition with the hoppy bitterness near the finish. Still, one must try these things I suppose, and it's worth giving a go.
