Organic Christmas is a bottom fermented bock beer with a caramel flavor and a sweetness from Munich malt, we have also used a little orange peel in the recipe. Christmas beer is one of the very best traditions of Christmas in Denmark and has been treated with respect and devotion since Viking times. Christmas beer has always been of the strong kind, indeed, a good beer. We have chosen to brew the beer so that it is not too strong, with an alcohol percentage of 5.8. That is on the low side amongst many Christmas beers but despite that, there is still plenty of flavor. Organic Christmas beer fits perfectly with the traditional Christmas Dinner. Wishing you a Merry Christmas.

Bottled. Amber colour with a mediumsized off-white head, which also leaves some lace. Aroma is sweet malts, some floral, mild wooden and some herbal tones. Flavour is sweet caramel and biscuity malts with some toffee, mild floral and some nutty tones. Low ABV, and not very exciting as such.

Bottle 33 cl. Pours a clear amber with a rich, off-white head with good retention and lacing. Again somewhat dusty aroma, not much malty richness coming through. Medium body, some sweet, biscuity malts, slightly toasty and nutty with a good bitter finish. At the low end for a Bock, but well made. 231120

Bottle at Beer Hunters. Nutty brown color, small off-white head. Raisins and rye in the nose. Medium-bodied. Odd raisin soup flavor. Light grassy notes and even some alcohol. Spices. Meh. Bad bottle?
