Julöl ska vara mörka, fylliga, komplexa och intressanta. För att få rätt maltkropp blandas tre maltsorter. Detta toppas med tysk och engelsk humle för att få ett komplext helhetsintryck och en balanserad humlearom. Winter Hale är en lite starkare, lättdrucken julale som passar till det mesta på julbordet.

Bottled, from Systembolaget. Clear mahogany colour, mid sized head. Caramelly nose. Sweet with above medium body and rounded mouthfeel. Sugared caramel, clean flavour profile. Low bitterness. Simple, but quite pleasant for a macro brew.

Bottled. A hazy amber beer with a beige head. The aroma has notes of malt, caramel, and spices. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, strong spices, caramel, and malt, leading to a dry bitter finish.

Bottle from Systembolaget. Clear copper with a slightly tan head. Sweet with caramel, dried fruit, malt, some cardboard and toffee. A bit thin and not that exciting.

(Draught at Stockholm Beer Festival, 5 Oct 2013) Dark red colour with frothy, beige head. Malty, roasted nose with notes of black-currant, burnt rubber, dried fruit and chocolate. Malty, roasted taste with burnt sugar, rubber, black-currant, chocolate and a certain spicy bitterness in the finish. Medium body, with a certain sweetness. Tasty, and surprisingly good, winter warmer. Quite nice.
