One of my Christmas gifts one holiday season was this 12 pack of beers from Scrooge & Marley. This (fictional) brewery only sells this seasonal holiday gift pack . I think the whole variety pack is a fun conversation piece at a holiday gathering more than a serious attempt at craft brewing. That being said this Ale was very tasty and drinkable. The hazelnut and other spices were a nice blend without having an overpowering taste that I have found in some other Christmas Ales
