hopIQ found 10 beers with the same roasted and nutty character as BOLTENs Winter Spezial. BOLTENs Winter Spezial is the brewery's annual cold-season edition, released each year around the time of St Nicholas and formerly sold as Nikolaus Spezial. Brewed from barley and wheat malt with the house BOLTEN yeast strain, it is a dark, unfiltered Altbier at 5.8 per cent, a little stronger than the everyday Alt. The nose leads with roasted malt, caramel and toffee, followed by coffee, dark chocolate and a nutty note reminiscent of peanuts, while the body stays smooth and easy to drink. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
