Deep amber in colour, Old Winter Ale is a strong beer with a malt, cookie and liquorice aroma. The prominent Crystal malts add sweet, nutty flavours, balanced by floral notes from Target, Challenger and Northdown hops.

bottle from Bierzwerg. Clear golden brown, mid-sized head. Wonderful malt flavours with hints of dark honey and caramel and a really nice and aromatic hop bouquet make this beer very convincing. Anytime again.

Bottle. It pours a clear, amber body and a small, off-white to beige head. It’s very malty on the nose, caramel, toffee, some dried fruits and a touch of roasted malts. Some hoppy notes. Toffee, dried fruits, roasted hints, a little bitterness and a hint of coffee in the flavor. Full body, quite dry. Bitter and toffee-ish finish. Well, I’m not impressed. 121124

Bottle @ home thx to benzai. Amber to ruby colour, decent beige head. Smells wood, oak, cognac, caramel, raisin, overripe apple. Tastes oak, sweet, raisins, malts. Quite a lot of taste for this not so strong beer. Thin to medium body, decent carbo.

50cl bottle shared with Dutchdrebus. Clear dark red color with a full sized off-white to lightly beige head that leaves good lacing and lasts for quite a while. Don’t get much aroma. Taste is nice though: malts, slightly butter, dark fruits, leaves, caramel and a slight touch of wood. Medium body, just about medium carbonation.
