Jenlain Noel

      This is a French Christmas Beer so I'm sure it will surrender it's flavor to me.  And, of course the Germans.  It comes in a nice beautiful big bottle with a fancy cork.  Looks like it would make a nice gift if it tastes any good.  Jenlain pours out copper with that skunky hop, caramel, mocha and a touch of spice.  There is quite a hop presence, along with nice caramels and a touch of vague spice.  It's also quite fizzy, but with very little head. This is a straight up good beer in the Farm House Ale mode.  I'm getting a bit of mocha on the finish.  It's good, but not special, I wouldn't pay a lot for it.
