Aarhus Bryghus Juletønden (the Chrismas Barrel) is the stronger of our two Christmas seasonals. At 8% it goes very well with the traditional Danish Christmas dinner: Duck, goose or pork roast with white and brown (caramelized) potatoes, red beet kraut, loads of thick gravy and finally pickled cucumbers. The fat and acetic meal kills any wine. It has always been tradition in Denmark to drink beer.

The beer helps digest the greasy food. The carbon dioxide also helps.

In Danish households everyone drank beer, and every household would brew their own beer. The beer for Christmas was brewed especially, and every household would brew the best they could for Christmas. This beer was called the Christmas Barrel
