Our winter beer is a dark and heartwarming beer with a full pure, slightly sweet taste and long soft bittery aftertaste. The ingredients are: seven types of malt (including rolled oats), two types of Belgian hops, brewing water and yeast. This is the ideal beer to make a cold and chilly winter evening cosy.

Bottle at home. Aroma is ripe dark fruits, dried fruits, plum, raisins, liquorice, malt, yeast, caramel, toffee, spicy notes, some nutmeg. Flavour is sweet with a little bitterness in the finish. Body is medium. Rather heavy sweetish spiced winter beer. Okay.

0.33 l bottle from 'SpeciaalBierPakket.nl', bottled in October 2024. Very dark ruby with a medium large, frothy, almost stable, off-white head. Sweetish-malty, gently fruity, slightly yeasty and even a bit vinous aroma of raisins, cherry, molasses and hints of red wine. Quite sweet, malty, moderately bitter, gently yeasty-spicy and slightly vinous-fruity taste of molasses, chocolate, raisins, cherry, some vanilla, light red wine and hints of oak, followed by a short, moderately bitter, minimally woody finish. Medium to full body, gently effervescent mouthfeel, average carbonation. Pleasant winter warmer, rather saturating and rich. Hardly get the juniper though.
