Beers similar to Christmas Ale

hopIQ found 10 beers with the same bitter and roasted character as Christmas Ale. A traditional barley wine at 7.5%, deep copper in colour and brewed for December. Biscuity malt and rich, vinous fruit are balanced by a strong hop bitterness; the aroma recalls Christmas pudding and wine, and roasted malt adds depth on the palate. Its strength lets Harvey's brew enough to keep it on sale for most of the year. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
