Advent Day 10: St Peter’s Winter Ale

ABV: 6.5%

St. Peter’s Winter Ale had a small short lived cream coloured head and a dark almost black body with hints of red if it catches the light right. The aroma is roasty with hints of dates and raisins and other dark fruits like them, the flavour is rich and creamy with a distinct but not too strong bitterness that can only be attributed to the roasted character in the beer. The body is medium full and the carbonation is medium low.

Rating: 4 / 5 – The roasted character is what makes this beer, balancing the sweeter caramel and dark fruit flavours. The creaminess of the beer makes it really pleasant to drink. Could happily sip on this for an hour.
