Julöl ska vara mörka, fylliga, komplexa och intressanta. Maltblandningen av de fyra maltsorterna ger rätt maltkropp, där kombinationen av blackmalt och caraaroma ger brygden dess smakrika brända och rostade karaktär som denna brygd behöver.

26th Jan 2018; 33cl can into a Chimay goblet at home with the dog. Deep ruby coloured body, tanned foam topping. Sadly the full foaming head soon fell away to a wisp and collar. The aroma and taste is like a used female leather bike seat with a sprinkling of Rye and cinnamon; not overly impressed.

Can. Morrisons. 80p! Very dark, ruby red. Thin, fully lacing, lasting, khaki coloured head. Nose has raisins and caramel. Some apple. Some brown sugar. Granary crust malts. Taste has a little buttered bread sweetness. Vinous, earthy bitterness. Lots of bitterness, actually. Soft and slightly sticky mouthfeel. Earthy hop bitterness to finish, with some dryness. No idea if this is true to style, but it’s pretty enjoyable, particularly at the sub nicker price.

Burk från SB. Kolabrun med gräddigt, smutsvitt skum. Doft och smak av rostad malt, bränd brödkant, rostat bröd, råg, kola, spannmål och malt. Lätt rågsyrlig. Medium beska i avslutningen som ligger kvar en stund. Ok.
