330 ml bottle, as Mack Juleøl God Jul 2025, from Vinmonopolet Stavanger Tasta. ABV is 6.5%. Clear chestnut colour, large beige head. Aroma of malts, brown bread and caramel, a faint hint of Christmas spices. Well rounded flavour with the same elements, hints of prunes, moderate herbal hops in the finish. An unassuming traditional Norwegian lager juleøl, designed to go well with our fairly robust Christmas / Yule fare.
