Winter Solstice® is our take on the classic style of “winter warmer.” Boasting a deep amber hue and rich mouthfeel, its creamy finish will lift your spirits. Hints of toffee, spice, and caramel tease the senses making this the perfect ale to share with friends and family during the cold days and long nights of winter.

Old rating. Bottles upon bottles from old town. A winter tradition for me at one time. Nice brown soda color with a tan head. Solid lacing. Aromas of bread, clove, Werther’s original, cinnamon and caramel. Tastes more of the same. Slightly sweet with a bready texture. Nice spice on the finish. Good winter seasonal.

Pouring Ribbons, NYC tap: Pours a light brown with a small off-white head. Aroma is malt and spices. Taste is similar to that. It is kind of sweet, with an ambiguous "holiday" taste to it. is it good? Well, yes, it is well made, and you should drink it.

Flaska från SB. Julöl 2014. Bärnstensfärgad, klar, krämig tjockt beige skum. Doft av toffee, torkad frukt och lite alkohol. Som kylskåpskall spritig som en tunn dubbeldock, lite varmare kommer söta smaker av kanderade mandlar, toffee och torkad frukt och knäckebröd fram bättre och då finns en liten nyponnyans jag gillar. Lätt beska och en lite nypa kryddor. Inte bra kall men åtminstone ok lite varmare.
