Bottle 330ml. [ As Zips X-mas Ale 2013 ].Clear dark red brown color with a small, fizzy, fair lacing, mostly diminishing, beige head. Aroma is moderate to heavy malty, roasted, dark malt, spicy, X-mas spices. Flavor is moderate to heavy sweet and moderate bitter with a long duration, dark malt, spicy, X-mas spices, mint, licorice, anis seed. IMO. quit odd, but okay for me. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. [20160422]
