Dark copper colour, fairly clean, with a light beige head, average retention and some decent lacing left. Big spices in the nose, kind of a mix of cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger with a mild chocolate and roasted malt base. The spices and malts continue in the taste, with good grassy hops that cuts the sweetness, thickness with good dryness. Some herbal and roasted barley notes linger. A pretty good spiced Stout that goes down fairly nicely for winter.

This stout poured a deep dark red colour with a creamy, light tan coloured head. Nice lacing. Scents include cloves, nutmeg, vanilla, black cherry and tobacco. First swig was creamy and delicious. Festive flavoured with tastes of cocoa, vanilla, smoke, spice and black cherry. Finish is quite burnt with flavours of fruitcake lingering.
