This seasonal beer is a limited edition brewed for the short days and long nights of winter. The full body resulting from fermentation in ‘stone Yorkshire squares’ and the luxurious malt character, which will appeal to a broad range of drinkers, is balanced against whole-dried Fuggle and Golding hops with nuances and complexities that should be contemplated before an open fire.

Winter is here. A lovely 20° day here, got some snow Friday night. First drink since last Saturday, felt nice to take some time off. Spurs were shit vs Pool today. Might be time for a new coach.

🦅 vs Commies.

Samuel Smith's Winter Welcome Ale (2023/2024), Flasche von Töpper, Moabit. - Rotgold, blank. - In der Nase zunächst erstaunlich wenig, blasses Toastmalz, etwas Karamel und Biskuit, sehr dezente obergärige Frucht und nur verhaltene Hopfung, dazu Anklänge an Holzleim. - Antrunk sauber gerstig toastmalzig mit Anklängen an Biskuit, Trockenaprikosen und leiser obergäriger Fruchtigkeit. Solide hopfenwürzig-herbale Hopfung, die wenig Raum für Süße läßt und allmählich in kernige, trockene Hopfenbittere mit Brotkruste übergeht. Durchschnittlich rezent, etwas hart im Mund, knochentrocken. Im Abgang verhaltene aber mächtige, leicht bissige Orangenschalenbittere und späte, schwach honigähnliche Süße. - Ungewöhnliches Winterbier, weniger füllig malzig als erwartet und von beträchtlicher Hopfenherbe aber nicht ganz rund. (13.12.2024.)

Amber, clear with a medium but short lived off white head. Aroma of sweet malt, hops and some honey like sense. Sweet, light bitter with a sweet malt, corn and hop end.
