Breckenridge Christmas Ale ....

Tonight I will sample a Christmas Ale from Breckenridge Brewery.  It is a seasonal available November through December.  The twelve ounce bottle shows 7.4% ABV.  Their web site shows 22 IBUs.

This beer poured with a small, beige head.  Beer color is a reddish brown.  The aroma has a little citrus and is hoppier than I expected.  There is also some caramel.  The taste is malty, with caramel, spice, maybe a little fruit.  Some hops come in at the end and bring a little bitterness.  This is a milder, hoppier winter warmer - different, and I enjoyed it.
