Christmas Ale, a traditional bitter ale brewed in Hampshire. This is a mid brown session ale with a complex malt sweetness that leads to a long, hoppy finish.

330ml bottle as gift. Amber/brown and clear with a big creamy off-white head. Woody/malty aroma with vinegary overtones. Not great. Tastes pretty good though, with light gritty malt combining with oaky flavours and an indefinable funk in the finish. Tastes a bit homebrewy but it's not all that bad.
