Y Market Christmas Ale 8% Dark brown with purple highlights and a beige head of foam. The aroma is cinnamon and cloves. Medium bodied you get spices up front but in a spiky rather than melded together way. It comes off as vibrant with cocoa in the finish that makes this a bit reminiscent of a chocolate Christmas cookie. Pretty good and it grows on me.
