L'Esprit de Noël from De Dochter van de Korenaar is an ambitious Christmas blend drawing on dark and light barrel-aged beers unified into one complex expression. This strong dark ale at 8.5% ABV is infused with myrrh and heather blossom, yielding a deep maroon hue and a compelling aromatic presence.

The palate reveals layers of caramel, roasted malt and exotic spice with hints of pine forest character. The beer balances sweetness and bitterness, with gentle alcohol warmth emerging in the finish. The marriage of barrel maturation and winter botanicals makes this a festive, contemplative choice for colder months.
