Fullers Old Winter Ale (Bottle)

Brewed by Fullers
Style: English Strong Ale
London, England

Bottled. Dark almost ruby coloured beer with a strong head. The aroma is hopped and slightly caramel and the flavour is very strongly hopped with a long dry caramel finish. Overall a well structured beer.

Bottled. It pours Dark golden with a soft, cream coloured head. Aroma is hoppy. Taste is hops and sweet malt taste fromthe crystal malts . Good long aftertaste.

Bottled. A dark amber coloured beer with low carbonation and no head. The aroma has a real figgy fruity raisin quality to it with a bit of Everton toffee. The taste is full bodied; sweet, malty ; fruity and full of good caramel notes. A good Winter type ale which looks and tastes very English. I consider this to be Fullers’ take on a Winter Warmer which I’m sure would be good cask conditioned and if my memory doesn’t deceive me, I have had cask conditioned in the dim and distant past? Reminds me a bit of a weaker version of Golden Pride too?

No head to speak of,browny reddish colour with a slight hoppy aroma.Initial spicy sweet taste,(chocolatey?)Im a liitle bit dissapointed,Fullers are usually better than this.
