Beware of the Dog Series: St. Nikkilaus Spiced Christmas Ale

Beware of the Dog Series: St. Nikkilaus Spiced Christmas Ale, Black Husky Brewing, Pembine, CA
(Spice/Herb/Vegetable)

Dark burgundy pour with a thick, foamy, tan head that stays for a while before fading. Immense holiday spices on the nose. Caramelized sugars, allspice, nutmeg, cinnamon. The aromas come through in the taste as well. The Christmas spices, nutmeg, allspice, cinnamon, cloves, lead the way. Sweet toasted malts and brown sugar round out this beer. Complex flavors. Full bodied. Just like with pumpkin beers, if you like spices, you'll love this one.
