My local wine/beer bar has this on tap. Thick almost chewy and creamy with Christmas spices, orange peel, but a bright finish that isn't as sweet as the palate, keeping it from being over the top in the richness aspect. I really like this ale. At 10% abv don't have too many of these though.
92 points.... Omg my first beer rating lol

If you want to score it, it's an 18E, and the scale only goes to 50. More importantly, I'm glad you enjoyed it.

The good thing about beer judging is that you have to swallow it. No spitting allowed!
