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.

(Draught at Stockholm Beer Festival, 5 Oct 2012) Dark reddish brown colour with frothy, beige head. Malty, roasted nose with dark bread, wort, dark treacle and crisp-bread. Malty, roasted taste with notes of dark rye bread, raisins, caramel and a mild spicy bitterness in the finish. Medium body, with a certain sweetness. Quite nice.

Draught@SBWF2012. Deep copper colour, small beige head. Aroma is nutty, mild tobacco, toffee, roasted malts and some slight ashes. Flavour is roasted malts, ashes, nuts, butterscotch and mild toasted notes. Promising aroma, but way too buttery flavour.
