Today was a pretty long day and while I was making the kids dinner I cracked open the bottle of beer my wife bought me yesterday. It was a 1 pt. 6 fl. oz. bottle of Moylan’s new Christmas brew aptly named “White Christmas” and it’s a Belgian style wit ale.

Barely smaller than the title on the label is the description of the undertones and flavors that will mingle and dance upon your tongue like ballet dancers stuck in “Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas” (just kidding, it’s not that potent, but it’s a fun visual, right?):

"…Brewed with Spices (Dried Orange Peel, Mace, Cinnamon, Coriander, White Pepper)"

Honestly, the description almost turned me off. I’m not typically fond of beers brewed with Cinnamon undertones, let alone Coriander… whatever the hell that is. But I was feeling adventurous. That, and the fact that I absolutely love Kiltlifter, another of Moylan’s fine line of beverages.

All of the flavors played quite nicely together and the malty smooth aroma literally made my mouth water. The fact that I emptied the entire bottle into my Oktoberfest mug made it that much better. Man, I stuck half my face into the top of the mug and took a deep breath in. I’ve tried a lot of beers over the years and I have to say, this one is right up there in my top 4.

Ahhh… dinner of champions. For me. Not the kids.
