3.6 Bottle 0.33L. Dark brown body with a large, creamy, tan head, mostly lasting with nice lacing. Moderate-to-heavy malty (roasted, biscuit, some caramel) with notes of dark chocolate, licorice and light spices. Moderate sweet and bitter flavour; average-lasting finish with bitter notes of licorice. Medium body with oily texture; soft carbonation. Nice one!

3.5 God, men noget ordinær Brown Ale. God fylde og aroma. Tilpas bitter - savner lidt sødme.

3.3 Pitch black clear beer, with a weak white head. Smell is ash coffee, nuts, subtle toffee and liquorice. Taste is watery bitter with a clean astringent finish. Hint of metal. Ash and coffee, hint of caramel.

2.8 It's ok but a little crap. Vegetabley. Aftertaste gets stranger the more you analyse it

2.9 Bottle, as santa paws. Dark brown pour. Aroma of nuts, caramel, malt and ripe fruit. Taste has soft hazelnut, caramel, malt and some leathery raisin. Bit too plain.

3.6 From Labirratorium. Labeled as Santa Paws. In Teku glass. Playing Bloo Kid 2. Pleasant toasted malts, hints of toffee and good body for its low abv. However, its also a bit unidimensional and has trace of the honey its suppose to have nor any christmasty spirit

The flavour is less sweet and more roasted with bread and grass. Little dry in the end. Has a slick mouth feel, light to medium body and bitterness. An ale with sweet aroma and malty flavour.

3.5 Piłem wersję Santa Paws - Christmas Scotch Ale. Przyjemna paloność w aromacie i smaku. Do zapachu dochodzą też sloskie nuty biszkoptów. Fajna garbnikowość i goryczka. Pijalne. Niezle piwko.

2.8 Bottle 0.33ltr: Dark brown colored brew with an slightly dry bitter taste with slightly hints of toffee and roasted malts. Bought it under its alias Santa Pawns 4,5%.

2.0 W zapachu słody i chlebek, w smaku słody. Barwa mocny ciemny brąz ostro wpadający w czerń. Tragicznie mało ciała i pusto. Nudne piwo.

3.2 Color marrón oscuro, opaco, con capa de espuma marrón claro de tres dedos de grosor y buena retención. Carbonatación media. Textura acuosa y ligeramente chispeante. Aroma a malta tostada, fruta madura, especias, fruto seco. En boca hay pasas, fruta madura, malta tostada, especias, fruto seco, regaliz. No me dice demasiado.

2.8 Bottle (Santa Paws)@home. Watery nuances of slightly roasted malts, some coffee, a hint of toffee, dried dark fruits and ash. Medium/narrow taste spectrum and medium aftertaste with dark fruits and slightly roasted malts. Averagely balanced. Light body with medium carbonation. Overall, sturdy but light in every aspect.

3.5 As Santa Paws. Appearance is coca-cola brown, a fluffy clingy beige head of around one finger. Aroma- brown bread, treacly malt, raisin, fruitcake, vanilla hints. Taste- caramel malt, toffee, chocolate, coffee, biscuit, blended raisin, sweet dark fruits, Christmas cake.

2.8 Bottle (as Santa Paws 4.5%) from Morrisons. Deep brown-black, thin short lived pale beige head and low condition. Pleasantly complex nose with fruity fig notes mixed with spicy yeastiness, some roasted coffee and a hint of citrus hop notes. In the mouth it has an initial burnt toffee sweetness and quickly develops a dry roast coffee bean bitterness but ultimately lacks the complexity promised in the nose. Finish is a little brief with a slight figgy sweetness and a chalky bitterness. Would benefit from a little more alcoholic depth and complexity.

3.2 Tried as Santa Paws capped at 4.5%. Pours JD coloured with a decent thin frothy head. Aroma of caramel, toffee and coffee. Taste of toffee, red fruits, honey and molasses. Finish is slightly bitter with some bread and coffee notes.

3.4 Bottled 0,33L. BrewDog Santa Paws Christmas Scotch Ale 4.5%. Dark brown braced color, limpid and medium bubbly aspect with foamy and creamy bulky head. Aged ashed wood and resin aroma, alchol, smoked resin. Warm and soft smooth palate, bitter and equilibrate alcholic mouth.

3.1 33 cl bottle, labeled Santa Paws at 4,5% ABV. Clear, dark reddish brown, thin tan cap, nice lacing, low carbonation. Aromas of dark chocolate and caramel, very familar for a Brown Ale. The flavours are as the aroma, dark chocolate, caramel, brown sugar and dark malts. Mouthfeel is quite thin and watery, medium carbonation. Not a bad beer at all, but it needs a bit more of everything to be really enjoyable.

2.5 Bottle. As Santa Paws. Nose is earthy, hint of toffee, malt, vegetables. Taste is malty, earthy, vegetables, hint of spice. Very thin body and hard to see a xmas theme. Tips over into being a bad beer.

3.1 33cl bottle. Dark red color. Roasted caramel aroma, a bit yeasty and baking spicy. Rather watery flavor at first but the finish is roasty and slightly hoppy and interesting enough.

2.8 Jet black. Uneven, tan-coloured head. Aroma is faint, but there’s some malt and chocolate there. Taste is bitter coffee grounds and some savoury herbs. Watery. Swing and a miss.

3.4 bottle as brewdog santa paws. clear brown, small light brown head. smooth roasted malty aroma, also choclate and coffee, bread, aroma is like a sweet chocolate cake with not much sugar. flavor is roasted malts, this sour malty note you get sometimes with very malty beers, discrete subtle hops, a very british brewn ale, but not at all tame. Sort of reminds me of guinness.

2.9 330 ml bottle at craft-jocke, as Santa paws. Aroma and taste is dark malty, bready, dark sugars, light woody notes,slight fruit with a medium bitter finish

3.3 (Bottle, as "Santa Paws") Dark brown colour with frothy, beige head. Malty, spicy nose with dark chocolate, coffee, burnt sugar, honey, orange peel, roasted nuts and spices (cinnamon, nutmeg). Malty, roasted, spicy taste with coffee, black rye bread, cacao, roasted chestnuts, orange peel, nutmeg, cinnamon, caramel and a mild roasty bitterness. Below medium body, mainly dry. Tasty and spicy, the fairly low abv makes it quite drinkable. Quite nice.
