A deep chestnut-coloured ale, perfect for enjoying by the fire on the crisp, wintery evenings of Advent leading up to Christmas. Our Advent Ale is brewed with the finest English malted barley and local hops, and has a refreshing, fruity nose, a sweet liquorice flavour and a rich dark chocolate aftertaste.
