Dundee Festive Ale
Ah Dundee! Every time I crack one I can expect well... an average brew. A - Looks kind of lacking. Tons of carbonation reducing foam to a mild lace ring. Color of semi dark amber. S - Well I can smell some caramel and bread maybe a bit of nutmeg or cinnamon but it's hard to really nail down since its so faint. T - Not bad! Expected something really bitter like a pale ale but got a smooth warmer with very mild spices. The most in your face part is the yeast which is bready and strong with little spices balancing it. Kind of warming really even with the low ABV. M - Got a kind of medium to slight heavy body. Must be from the yeast. D - Well it's good but no really something I could see as a go to winter warmer. It's pretty decent and well deserved of at least a B+ rating but to me seems to need more spice.
