Our Pacific Winter is a dark, malty ESB with rich caramel and tropical notes. We reckon it warms the soul and makes those long northern winter nights just sail by.

Can, 6.4%. Liquorice aroma. Also smells quite malty with a whiff of smoke. Hazy dark amber colour. Very big tan head. The flavour starts off very bitter with a raw liquorice note. Then it turns more malty, with a bready malt syrup note and a Christmassy spice note.

Can. Pours hazy amber with large, stable beige head. Clear aroma of fruit and malt, with touches of hops and caramel. Sweetish flavour of caramel malt, with fruity and estery notes and bitter touches of hops. Bitter aftertaste with hints of caramel malt and touches of yeast. Not bad but quite sweet for a bitter.

(Can, Stockholm Beer & Whisky Festival, 28 Sep 2018) Amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Malty nose with caramel, black-currant and floral hops. Malty taste with notes of caramel, toffee, black-currant and a balanced earthy, floral bitterness in the finish. Medium body, with a certain sweetness. Tasty and well balanced. English premium bitter with a Pacific hop touch. Nice one.
