Bottled@The 1st Vaasa CS/ES beer session (thanks MMM!). Honeyish golden colour with a small off-white creamy head, that leaves nice lace. Aroma is slight spices with some raisins, plum and fruityness. Flavour is tropical fruits, some raisins, mild spices, caramel malts and some light bitterness along with all this in the finish. Not very much Christmas in this one...
