Created in the thirties, Gordon Xmas initiated the tradition of Christmas brews. Dark cherry colour, transparent but dense. Aromas to yeast (bread) and milk chocolate. Mouthfeel to toffee, very creamy and bodied, but not heavy. Very easy to drink and tasty.
Grief translates as the Griffin Brewery. Grief has been a Forchheimer brewing tradition for 150 years. The brewery is now on the latest technical state.
