About This Beer
The Wild Leap crew didn’t just load this gift with all the flavors of one seasonal sweet. They packed it with all the nuances of gingerbread, eggnog, and sugar cookies for a sip like three of your Wintertime staples!
They started with a sumptuous, sweet Stout base. Then they layered it with cinnamon, cardamom, vanilla beans, allspice, nutmeg, and ginger for a true cup of cheer.
Tasting Notes
Every pour erupts with enough yuletide aromas to make a Yankee candle jealous. The taste follows, festive spices leaping like lords across the palate before skating into vanilla custard tones hinted with cocoa. An untraceable 9.5% ABV hides in the decadent depths like a present hidden inside a gingerbread house.

This is an amazing alternative to eggnog, I would not want to go another Christmas without at least one can.

As a newbie, stout drinker, I have to say Wild Leap definitely does the stout fans justice! This holiday stout ale is full of all the things that make the Christmas holiday great: fun flavors, festive themes, and of course, your High Point ABV!  thank you Wild Leap for never disappointing!

This was yummy. A touch on the sweet side, but the overall blend balanced the egg nog notes enough to give this one a full taste. I’d get again.

Delicious Imperial Stout with a nice balance of spices. The 9.5% Abv is perfect!

Cinnamon on nose, dry nutmeg ginger and cinnamon in the front, boozy malt in the back. Not overly sweet despite the dessert-like flavors, very well done.

So good! Very Christmasy. Got all the spice flavors advertised. Wish I ordered more.

Great flavor. Had a nice gingerbread flavor. Only a slight hint of eggnog. I loved that you could taste the cinnamon, allspice and nutmeg but it wasn’t overpowering.

Creamy espresso-like head, subtle holiday spice aromas, a cornucopia of Christmas treat tastes but not too sweet, thick, dry, with fresh baked gingerbread
and vanilla notes in the finish.

Notes of cinnamon, vanilla, ginger, and nutmeg. Unmistakably holiday spiced. Full mouthfeel, taste follows the nose. Has some cola notes as it warms. Tasty.
