Holiday Ale # 15 – Winter Welcome from Samuel Smith

SamSmith-WinterWelcome

The middle picture on this British Winter Warmer changes each year but I like the Willie Shakespeare version the best.  The weird pursed lips speak to me for some weird reason.  Samuel Smith describes their seasonal as “a limited edition brewed for the short days and long nights of winter. The full body resulting from fermentation in ‘stone Yorkshire squares’ and the luxurious malt character, which will appeal to a broad range of drinkers, is balanced against whole-dried Fuggle and Golding hops with nuances and complexities that should be contemplated before an open fire.”
