Smooth chocolate and vanilla taste with a nice warming cinnamon aftertaste . Good winter porter .

3.75 Aroma is a bit bland, but the taste is well balanced. Very enjoyable and not too rich, which is a problem I’ve had with other NM beers.

Aromas of chocolate and roasted malt. Pours black in the glass. Medium bodied, Festive Star starts on bitter dark chocolates malts and some sour notes of lactose. The cinnamon spicing is subtle and there's just the slightest hit of smooth, sweet vanilla towards the end. On the finish you get a dusty and bitter cinnamon taste. A nice light porter with a festive twist.

Very nice but a bit of a safe Christmas beer. More of a solid porter.
Had a nice treacle flavour cutting through the chocolate and coffee.
Didn't really get much cinnamon.

Pretty amazing, the nose is neutral but the depth of spice and flavour is impressive. Very satisfying.

Nice porter, vanilla, cinnamon, chocolate not too evident though

Fine, not bad at all. Feels like the basis of what could be a very good beer if they wanted to develop it
