On tap at North Center as part of the Flight Before Christmas. Pours a clear amber with a white head. Aroma of caramel, molasses, citrus. Toasty, syrupy caramel, bitter, and citrusy. My favorite of the four, but only a bit ahead of the Fruitcake Quad.

On tap at North Center as part of the Flight Before Christmas. Pours a fully murky pale yellow with a white head. Citrus in the aroma. Flavor has citrus, pine, trpoical hops, but nothing I can pick out as cranberry. Probably for the best since I tend to dislike cranberry.

Re-rate (accidental) 23-Dec-2023. On tap at North Center as part of the Flight Before Christmas. Per the employees, this is actually an aged version of last year's batch. Pours a clear amber with an off-white head. Aromas of dark fruit, cherry, and ginger. Flavors of ginger, raisin, molasses, and cherry, finishing with some hop bitterness. The aging definitely seems to have addressed my issues with it.
On tap at the brewery. Pours a red amber with an off-white head. Maple syrup aroma with fruit. Flavor has cherry, sweet and a bit boozy, but I also feel like there's a little bit of an off flavor at times, like a little bit sweaty. It's still tasty overall, though. (7/4/6/4/13/3.4)

Re-rate (accidental) 23-Dec-2023. On tap at North Center as part of the Flight Before Christmas. Pours a deep brown to black color with an off-white head. Cocoa and molasses in the aroma. Flavors are roasty, cocoa, a bit of spice with coffee. Nothing too distinctive in the spices, which is to say I don't pick out ginger specifically. Still pretty nice.

Howler from the brewery. Pours a syrupy black with a nice tan head. Roasty, creamy cocoa and coffee aroma. Flavor is fairly roasty, almost smoky, coffee and dark chocolate. Quite good.
