hopIQ found 10 beers that share Jul's malty and caramel character. Dark brown Christmas ale that smells of orange and coffee. The taste is full, with coffee latte and caramel, lightly sweet with a mild bitterness and a smoky finish that leaves a fresh feeling behind. Harmoniously balanced overall. Jul is the new name of Bøgedal Jul#1, and it is brewed with Munich, Cara and black malt.
