Taste: Earthy but the christmas pump art was misleading. Where's the spices? This is not bad, it's just standard. We suspect Brains had a leftover ale and an 'amusing' name and tried to hitch a ride on the christmas ale train. Shame really.
Appearance: Table brown
Would you buy 2? We've got three of the suckers.
Would you buy 4? Bah humbug.
Rating (out of 7): 4 * * * * Drinkable. Standard. Not christmas.
