A rich and complex Old Ale brewed for the festive season. A blend of speciality malts along with additions of mixed dried fruits and mixed candied peel produce a smooth and malty beer full of the fruity and dark-sugar flavours of fruitcakes and Christmas pudding.

Deep chestnut brown with a ruby tinge, a small frothy tan head and a sweet malt and raisin aroma. Light to medium bodied, has a hint of spice up front, sweet and malty with a bunch of fruit cake mix, floral bitterness and a dry finish.
