    Dark ruby colour with big beige creamy head. Plums and malts in aroma, with also some dates in it. Strong flavour of datecake and also plum along with bitterish hoppy notes. Some butter found too. Christmassy indeed.

    clear dark ruby colour with a fine little foam; aroma of dried fruits (fig, raisins) with strong notes of vanilla and coconut; good malt body; some sweetness and a high carbonation; the finish is dry and bitter with more notes of coconut and fruit marmelade - it works for me !

    Pours with a deep red body topped by a medium thick head with some lacing. The aroma is sweet and malty with a slight chocolate note. The flavor is sweet, malty and very chocolatey with a slight spice. Actually tastes a little like pudding. Medium bodied and smooth.

    Deep red colour with slim, off-white head. Coconut is the only thing noticed in the aroma, it also dominates the taste and the finish. I can’t really get beyond it. Pretty good mouthfeel. A strange beast: coconut beer.
