Saint Arnold Christmas Ale was surprisingly smooth. It is fairly light in color with a yellowish foamy head. My first impression was that it was going to taste like a light beer, but as usual, Saint Arnold gave us a straight forward flavor at the beginning with a nutmeg-like spice about two seconds after a fizzy swallow. Most Saint Arnold beers have a very different, fizzy texture, so it makes for an interesting flavor. I highly recommend this seasonal blend and it would go very well with a Connecticut shade cigar. (Fuente or Macanudo) I have had one at dinner with chicken, and at lunch with a sandwich. If you like a lighter flavored Ale with a hint of seasonal spice, then you will enjoy this on. Go get a 6-pack while they are still on the shelves because it is only here for a couple of months!
