As the air gets crisper and the nights grow cosier, Vinternatt is our take on a yule ale. Brewed in collaboration with our friends at Bådin straight from the Arctic Circle.

With a grist inspired by a Scotch ale and nine different malts creating layers of flavour and complexity, think dates, toffee, caramel and a touch of chocolate. We've added orange peel and cinnamon to make this the perfect Christmas winter warmer.

Best enjoyed with loved ones by a roaring fire
