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.

500ml bottle via djoeye, shared with Finn. Huge, creamy, tan-coloured head leaving crocheted lacing to the glass. Black body, red-tinged. Earthy malts on the nose, hints of caramel. Flavours of herbs, bread and dark fruits. Slightly roasted endnotes. Fine bodied. Yuletide feel, alright (Tromsø 18.12.2014).

50cl bottle from Systembolaget, Strömstad. Pours very dark brown with a moderate sized beige head. Dark and malty aroma with some slightly roasty notes, dark, dried fruits, caramel and hints of chocolate, herbs and spices. Medium sweet, but fairly balanced and pleasant malty flavours and a certain bitterness. Nothing special, but quite decent.
