Every year to celebrate the holiday season, we brew up our Christmas Ale, and with each year we change the recipe slightly so that you have something special and new to look forward to. Traditionally, our Christmas Ale is a complex brown ale that develops well in the bottle for up to five years.

"This is a cross between Sam Adams Boston Lager and Guinness. I would not reccommend this beer to my friends or enemies. Please try to be a little more original. "

[2] Review by oh6gdx from Vaasa, Finland who has tried this beer once. (12/29/2007 4:50:50 PM)
"Bottled (2005 vintage, thanks heemer77). Amber colour with mediumsized beige head. Aroma is spics, hops and some fruity hints. Flavour is mild hops, spices and caramel with some fruityness lurking in the background. Not that special, but wellbalanced and drinkable. "

[3] Review by Phil B from Gatineau, Canada who has tried this beer once. (10/30/2007 1:02:07 PM)
"Bottle: Poured a clear deep brown color ale with a big foamy head with some average retention and some small lacing notes. Aroma of spices with a big caramel malt profile. Taste is also dominated by a big caramel malt presence with some sweet notes and a strange mixture of spices. Body could have been fuller. Interesting but lacking something to be truly great."

""This was a unique beer. For the longest time, I associated a beers color with its flavor (back around my 21st birthday), but this took me out of that misconception. ""
