Nørrebro Bryghus

Brown Ale·Denmark·6% ABV·One of 153 Brown Ales in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Julebryg's caramel and malty character. Launched in 2003, the year Nørrebro Bryghus opened, this Christmas beer was developed by brewmaster Anders Kissmeyer, who took his cue from the freedom of Danish Christmas brewing: no fixed style, just a seasonal tradition. The result is a dark, mahogany-brown, unfiltered ale brewed with barley, wheat and rye malt, ginger and cloves. Caramel malt, dried fruit and spice meet a lightly tart sweetness, ending in a spiced finish with a light bitter edge.
