As the snow is deep outside my home today and as Saturday is beer tasting day for me, here is my favourite winter beer.
John Martin, Gordon Xmas from Belgium
8.8% deep ruby red with a very thin head, roasted malt and port aroma, complex taste of roast malt, toffee, coffee and almost sweet sherry, very festive, like a Christmas party in your mouth. Absolutely loved it, the commercial description says "Created in the thirties, Gordon Xmas initiated the tradition of Christmas brews" I wish they were all this good.
