Draught as "Ahle Ale Jubileums Bitter", in July 2006. Swapped rating from "Ahle Ale". At Delirium Cafe in Gothenburg, Sweden. Shady orange color, tan head. Hoppy and malty sweet scent. Very bitter taste and aftertaste. Also a bit sweet aftertaste.

First rating from 2006Initial Rating Date: 12/24/2006Draught at The Rover, Göteborg.Small thin sweet scent. Lots of metal taste with some acid in the back. You can hint some chocolate as well, especially in the aftertaste, but all in all it’s not that nice. Needs more spices for a Christmas beer. Needs to get rid of the acids that keeps coming back in Ahlafors’ beers. Also needs some more hops.4/4/3/2/8=2.1Second rating, from 2007UPDATED 12/8/2007Tried this again, draught at The Rover, Göteborg.Even though I don’t find it as infected as last year, it still is there. A lingering acidic bad sensation in the aftertaste foremost. They really need to get it together at the brewery or I think they’ll just not be able to sell their beers anymore.Scent was lots of butterscotch and a nice smell of christmas bread. Taste is butterscotch and a bit roasted, though the acidic lactic tone just ruines it completely. Medium mouthfeel, low bitterness. Didn’t finish this one. No need to update with more figures, last year it was infected, this year it is infected.Rerate50 cl bottle as "Kungälvs Julöl" from 2009, thanks to Ingo! BB 05/10.
