hopIQ found 10 beers that share Skands Julebryg's malty and full-bodied character. A Danish Christmas ale brewed on light and dark malts, which give it a handsome reddish colour. Extra storage time rounds the flavour into something full and smooth: delicate sweetness, subtle chocolate notes and muted bitterness. Organic barley malt, hops and yeast, brewed in Brøndby by Skands, a specialty-beer brewery founded in 2003.
