I think this may have to go into specialty? slightly boozy, warm, malty quality is balanced by resinous, piney hop character and a dry finish. Special b gives a hint of prune/raisin. This was a split batch with spruce and orange tincture added at bottling to half. It is completely indetectable in comparision to the normal half. I brewed it orginally as a 'holiday ale' but not sure it will fit there or not. Any ideas?

It's probably not medal worthy but I figured what the hell since I have some around in bottles which is rare.
