Advent Day 14: Umeå X-Mas Ale

Xmas ale

ABV: 6%

Of the four local craft breweries U&ME was the only one to release a seasonal beer this year with their Umeå x-mas ale. This winter warmer is dark in colour with a coffee head that was small and disappeared quickly. The aroma is sweet like caramel with some chocolate hinted through it. The flavour is a toned down dark chocolate with hints of caramel and also some hop bitterness to balance any sweetness. The mouthfeel is medium and the carbonation of this beer is low.

Rating: 3.5/5 – Tasty and bonus points for being local, I’ll drink it again sometime.
