As winter comes to an end Galanthus Nivalis is a messenger for warmer and better times, winter requires a robust beer so we created this Barley Wine in typical English style like a signal that spring is coming. Galanthus Nivalis also has enough substance for you to warm yourselves on even the cold spring nights - otherwise it would not have been a genuine Amager Brewery beer. In the glass Galanthus Nivalis is a warm amber colour with a creamy off-white head the aroma is full of rich caramel whilst the taste is rich and malty with notes of caramelized apples. There is a clear imprint of the 13 months in port casks, giving a soft and slightly oxidized edge, the alcohol you can hardly feel the heat is just gentle and pleasant. Ingredients: Water, barley malt, wheat malt, candy sugar, hops and yeast. 1600 bottles of 37,5 cl produced.

    Bottled@CPH BeerFest2010. Amber colour, small head. Aroma is fruits, wood, toffee, alcohol, some mild sweet malts as well. Flavour is sweet malts, some wood, fruits, toffee and alcohol. Quite pleasant Barley Wine, but might need some more time.

    Pours out in a hazy dark amber colour with a small creamy off-white head. Rich fruity aroma of wood, prunes, blackberries, neutral yeast and figs. Full-bodied with strong notes of oak, prunes and figs. Mild carbonation. Long semi-dry finish of oak, figs and white pepper. Really well-made sipper stuff.
