440ml can from Trembling Madness. Black with a foamy tan head. Roasted malt and Christmas spice aroma, flavour is much the same with plenty of bitter coffee although I'm not really getting the vanilla. Not bad but there are better Kitties

440ml can. Gluten Free. Dark brown colour with reddish tinge, beige foam head leaving lacing and aroma of roast malt, dark chocolate, spices. Taste is roasty malt, cinnamon, chocolate, vanilla, some coffee, with earthy fruity spiced bitterness. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, dry roasty spiced finish. Nicely drinkable.

Can from Appellation Wines. Appearance - dark brown to black with a cream to tan head. Nose - chocolate, vanilla and a big cola note. Taste - vanilla cream, chocolate, coffee and again the cola note, but intermingled with bubble gum. Palate - medium bodied, creamy texture. The finish remains sweet. Overall - a big sweet. Reckon it'd be great on cask.

Black beer, thick off white head. Malty smell.with vanilla and cinnamon. Tastes of malt, dark chocolate, cinnamon, cloves. Exactly what you'd expect from a Christmas variant of a beer and it's very drinkable.

Almost opaque dark brown - amber beer, small pale tan head. Palate is smooth but also pretty dry. Smooth dry dark malts. Little dry cream. A lot of cinnamon with a slight cardamon vibe. Modest dark fruits. Dry finish. Classic over spicing Christmas clunk.
