Gouden Carolus Christmas shows with a darkly rubied hue, and offers up a wonderfully appealing liquorice, cough candy and white pepper nose. The nose really is something to be meditated over; it's quite wonderful.
Liquorice and syrupy stewed fruit follow through on the palate, with a fantastically balanced finish, drying off the sides of the tongue, sweet at the tip at the same time.
A wonderful seasonal ale that I enjoyed early on a mid-December evening as the wood burner roared. A real success that I intend to return to next year in the same month.
