Christmas Cactus is the 3rd Cactus Catalog blend of some of our favorite bourbon barrel aged dark beers. Incorporating an 18 month vintage of NOJO which was barrel aged along side a small amount of Who Hit John, a younger vintage of NOJO out of barrels, and topped off the blend with a particularly delicious barrel of Predation. This beer is captivating. Massive aroma of chocolate covered toffee and toasted marshmallows over a fire. Lots of warming vanilla bourbon as you first sip but finishes with tons of thick sweet caramel that immediately leaves you wanting more.

Pint can pours with a deep dark body that supports a thin light tan head of foam. The aroma offers up chocolate, malt balls, dark roasted malts and then some bourbon booze and coconut. The taste delivers smooth chocolate and dark roasted malts giving way to boozy bourbon. To midway mild oak and coconut are noticed. Nice sipper.
