Not quite black. dark but not 100%. no head at all. Very sweet nose. loads of cinnamon, some brown sugar and candy corn. sort of a molasses weirdness. Yeah, it’s Christmas in a bottle but not in a good way. Yes, gingerbread but a lot of ginger, not too sweet and not insanely christmasy. Sort of roast and dry.

Consumed on premise at the Gingerbread Stout release party. This one poured a near pitch black color with little more than a wispy, small tan head to it. Aroma was some light spices, roasted and sweet malt characters, and what appears to be gingerbread. Flavor is cocoa, roasted malts, and gingerbread. Well I suppose they hit it if this is what they were aiming for. Alcohol was obviously there, but this brew was highly drinkable on that cold, windy Saturday.
