Festive Ale

This flavoursome, full-bodied ale has the weight to stand up against strong flavours. The flavours derived from the molasses and the black malt offer a sweetness that lends itself perfectly to desserts such as sticky toffee pudding, Christmas cake and Christmas Pudding.

Festive AleRich and Indulgent

Christmas is a time of indulgence and treating yourself, so for those of you who like to enjoy something extra special over the Christmas festivities, we’ve brewed a flavoursome winter warmer that’s bound to excite the taste buds.

Festive Ale is a rich, dark ale with a bright amber glow. We’ve ensured that we have selected the very best ingredients to deliver a beer that’s high on flavour and aroma. Brewed with classic English Goldings and Fuggles hops and using premium Maris Otter malt Festive Ale is a full bodied ale which has been brewed with the addition of molasses and a touch of black malt to accentuate the sweet malts giving a delicious flavour. The result is a lovely traditional cask ale with a dominant malt and a rich alcohol warming flavour.

Festive Ale tastes great sat beside a roaring pub fire or when toasting the festive cheer with family and friends.

We hope you love this one as much as we do!
