04:42  Winter Warmer Beer #1 – Lingo’s selection - Young’s Winter Warmer

“Rich, ruby-colored beer, almost red in bright light. Complex fruity nose with hints of candy. Luscious and full-bodied, with a powerful mouth-coating flavour leading to a bittersweet, vinous finish.”

42:45   Winter Warmer Beer #2 – USBrit’s selection – Ommegang Brewery, Chocolate Indulgence

  “The taste continues with the intense Belgian dark chocolate gliding   across the tongue; starting sweet up front but giving way to rich cocoa flavors at the back. Through it all, a subtle fruitiness from our special Belgian yeast gives the beer brightness otherwise foreign to a beer style normally associated with gray foggy skies.”
