hopIQ found 10 beers with the same malty and full-bodied character as Winter Welcome Ale. A seasonal strong ale, brewed in limited quantity for the cold months and released with a new label each winter. Fermentation in slate Yorkshire squares gives it a full body, and malt leads throughout: tasters describe caramel, toffee and biscuit. Whole dried Fuggle and Golding hops stand against that richness with an earthy, herbal and gently spicy bitterness, and the finish is warming and fairly dry. The ingredient list is short: well water, barley malt, hops and yeast. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
