hopIQ found 10 beers with the same malty and sweet character as Old Winter Ale. Old Winter Ale is Fuller's seasonal ale for the colder months, sold in limited quantities through the brewery's own shop. It pours a deep amber and leans heavily on Crystal malt, hopped with Target, Challenger and Northdown. Malt, cookie and liquorice shape the aroma. On the palate the Crystal malt gives sweet, nutty and biscuity flavours, which floral notes from the hops keep in balance. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
