It's The Most Wonderful Time of the Beer: Spiteful Jingle Balls

Beer #6 in the advent calendar was a selection from another local Chicago brewery, Spiteful.  Billed as a winter ale brewed with spices, Jingle Balls is a pretty solid winter ale.  You can -- or at least I can -- taste some cinnamon and maybe some nutmeg or vanilla.  It has kind of a hoppy bitter finish, so it's not my favorite winter ale, but it's still pretty damn good.
