Tap at Dryhop. Opaque brown-black body. Creamy, steady beige head. Creamy smoked chocolate flavor. The juniper gives it a Christmas Ale, spiced feel. Mellow, pretty easy for a Belgian style beer. A little heavy on the specialty malts, has a slick sugary feel. Baker’s chocolate, doughy brown sweetness. A touch oily, almost leading into an Eastern European feel. Pretty decent overall, but odd stylistically.
