A clear brown porter with a very thin off white head. In aroma, sweet fruity chocolate malt with light ginger and cloves, grassy hops, OK. In mouth, a sweet fruity caramel malt with light ginger, light mineral notes, so-so. On tap at brewery.

Third gingerbread brew in two weeks... I see a popular Christmas trend this year. Not sure if this one is clear or slightly hazy, as the glass is chilled from the cold beer served. Copper colour with a warm cap, decent retention and some dirty spots. Sweet malty nose with spices, brown sugars and caramel notes. Honey and mild dark fruits come out as it warms up. Nice gingerbread flavours with the cinnamon and ginger. Refreshingly wet with a little stick. A pretty good representation of gingerbread. Gets very good warmer. Also gets sweeter with time.
