Hah, great score for less than 2$. I'm diggen this. A high alky leftover holiday (PC correct BTW) brew. Its got a big alky kick from the start. Yes, this is a slightly darker than pale brew with lots of visible co2 in there. The feel of the co2 is just average. In the middle its a little sweet and cloying, just like many xmas brews. Yes its a little volatile, but that is to be expected. These spiced holiday brews always try to come across with a numbing experience. Well, its a typical December brew for the holidays, there you have it. Good to have this for a small groundhog day vacation. After all, it was up to 45F today when it was below zero Fahrenheit yesterday. That's way less than 0 degrees C for you metric dudes.

Pour is a dark red with a large foamy tan head. Aroma is cinnamon and vanilla with a spice in the back round I can't quite nail down. Flavor is more cinnamon, vanilla and some cherry juice with a bitter finish. Lots of different flavors all mingling around. Nice winter warmer with lots of spices.
