Er en "Old ale" -stil, denne øltypen brukes tradisjonelt som juleøl på de britiske øyer. Her setter vår alegjær et tydelig fruktig preg som sammen med de mørke maltsortene gir et øl som smaker mye av julens mørke frukter. Serveringstemp 10-12 grader.

[1] Review by oh6gdx from Vaasa, Finland who has tried this beer once. (11/11/2007 4:09:03 AM)
"Bottled. Very dark ruby red colouur with mediumsized beige brownish beige head. Aroma is mild caramel malts with some spices and licorace. Also some slight bittering notes. Flavour is quite much the same, but leaves at a quite mild stage. Once it warms up it gets some rubbery hints. Surprisingly watery in the flavour. "

[3] Review by Sigmund from Hafrsfjord, Norway who has tried this beer once. (11/14/2006 3:01:20 PM)
"500 ml brown bottle, Vinmonopolet. Batch #46. Bottle conditioned. Dark brown colour. Huge and creamy long-lasting tan head. Pleasant aroma of roast malts, dried fruits, mild coffee and chocolate. Flavour has also plenty of roast malts, moderately sweet, with coffee and dark bitter chocolate in the long aftertaste. Good beer, but Nissefar is even better"
