COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
En mørk gylden ale hvor de 8 malte og tre humle sorter giver en laaang fin eftersmag. En frisk og fyldig ale der passer til julebordet og den mørke tid vi går ind i. Vi har brugt en smule Muscovado sukker som er med til at give Jule Ale en fin sødme med et strejf af krydderier.

A lovely murky red-brown colour with a medium sized off white head that went away at a medium pace. The nose is mild, sourish, dusty, malty and fruity. The taste is mild and uninteresting again but pleasant, quite sweet and malty/fruity with notes of cornel jam. Ok.
