On tap. Pours brown with light head. Aromas of roasted malts with floral notes. Flavors of perfume, resin, and somewhat sour malt extract.

Dark brown color with small head. Some caramel aroma. Caramel flavor, moderate residual sweetness, light liquorice impression; ordinary bitterness.
Quite boring.

Reddish-amber colour with slight haze, this year’s incarnation of the popular Christmas brew has the aroma of raisins, toffee and a little bit of bubblegum. The flavour is sweet, but there is a juicy maltiness that lends vibrancy to the body and keep things moving along. Slightly chewy towards the finish. The alcohol is well-masked. Made with the Westmalle yeast. Ar 7 Ap 3 F 7 P 4 O 14 = 3.5

2005 is the same beer, made with a different yeast (White Labs golden). It’s still fruity and bubblegummy, but less complex I think. Woodier and nuttier though.
