Winter Welcome Ale

◎ Aussehen

Deep amber to copper hue, translucent and bright. A dense, off-white head forms readily and adheres to the glass with visible lacing as the beer is consumed. Carbonation is moderate, releasing a gentle cascade of fine bubbles.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with caramel and toffee sweetness, supported by a subtle biscuit maltiness that recalls toasted grain. Whole dried Fuggle and Golding hops contribute restrained earthy and herbal notes with a whisper of spice, while the strength shows warmth without harshness.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens with rich malt character—caramel, toffee, and biscuit flavours dominate the entry and mid-palate, creating a full body that coats the mouth. Whole-leaf Fuggle and Golding hops provide an earthy, gently spicy bitterness that balances the sweetness without overwhelming it, while the 6% alcohol adds subtle warmth throughout.

◑ Abgang

The finish is warming and fairly dry, with the malt character retreating to a soft caramel note and the herbal bitterness lingering pleasantly. The aftertaste is clean and drying, with no cloying sweetness.
