It's The Most Wonderful Time of the Beer: Delirium Noël

If Great Lakes Christmas Ale allows you to time travel, Delirium Noël declares, with a devilish smirk, "Roads?  Where we're going, we don't need roads."  Clocking in at a healthy 10%, this Belgian Strong Dark Ale is, in fact, Belgian, dark, and strong -- exactly how I prefer my ales and my strippers.  It's malty, caramely, and doesn't have much of an aftertaste despite its strength, which makes it dangerously easy to drink.  And with that, I'll see you in the morning, which, for me, will seem like five minutes from now.
