[bottle from Waitrose, Marlow] Coriander dominates, but pleasantly balanced and quite sweet. Not a bad beer at all, and quite unusual.

(From old notes, cask at Pullman Bar on 2008-01-04) A bit hazy beer having a rather beautiful head. Very light body, feels a bit like dishwater with hops added in it. Hops appear clearly both in taste and nose. Also some sweetness in taste. Only connection to Christmas (if this is a Christmas beer in 1st place) is its name.

Deep orange colour with a big, frothy white head that left plenty of lacing down the glass. Spicy aroma of coriander and ginger, with some honey and earthy hops. Flavour was very spicy with a bitter, warming alcohol finish. Good.
