Great clarity
Bananas
Alcohol hot finish
It's difficult to score since guidelines are variable.  A bit too much alcohol burn on the back end and not a lot of front end flavor.

My memory of Noels is that they should be a little spicier - don't get a lot of spice

Really interesting - at first I thought the alcohol was a bit harsh but then I realized it is due to either the yeast or full mouthfeel

Awesome!  The aroma is so potent and every not is perfect.  I'd love this in a sniffer.  The body is just a touch fizzy, and I'd have liked a touch less sweetness and a touch more stone? fruit, but a very impressive brewing achievement!

Excellent!  Malt, spice, yeast flavor/aroma all in balance.  Could be a little higher carbonated.
If high alcohol, very sneaky, does not show high ABV
