Country: USA
Description: Colour=Brown, Malty=Yes, Hoppy=No, Effervesce=Yes, Other=Sharp but rich fruity and refreshing taste
Preference: 3 (1=0 2=0 3=1 4=0 5=0)
Comments: www.harpoonbrewery.com Ingredients: water, malted barley, hops, yeast, cinnamon, nutmeg. IBU 23. Harpoon Winter Warmer is a full-bodied rich ale that uses a touch of cinnamon and nutmeg to achieve its spirited flavor. Perfect for the holidays! One of the oldest, continually-brewed seasonal beers in America (since ‘88). Victory, Dark Caramel, and a touch of Chocolate malt combine to give a bready, toffee-like malt profile. An early addition of Northern Brewer hops act to balance the malt while the addition of ground cinnamon and nutmeg shine through to add a subtle spice. Dark copper in color with a medium body, its rich but refreshing and wonderfully warming.

Comments: www.hooky.co.uk Our beers contain natural ingredients: malted barley and wheat, hops and yeast, with pure water from our own spring-fed well. Twelve Days is a strong dark brown beer, offering a dominantly malty palate with nutty overtones, giving way to a lyrical sweetness that speaks for its strength. It is a fine partner to the cheese board. Cheers! We have been brewing award winning beers since 1849. Our traditional Victorian Tower Brewery, deep in the Oxfordshire countryside,is still powered by a steam engine.
