Commercial Description:
This fantastic brew began its life as "Charlie", the third installment of the Brewer’s Select Series. It is now part of our seasonal lineup and will be released in the month of January. It is an intricate dark ale with a touch of smokiness. The rich malt flavor, crisp bitterness and smoke reach perfect equilibrium in this brew. At 7.5% abv, Fireside Ale will warm you up as the temperature drops.

Bottle 35,5 cl. Courtesy of TheCheeseMan. Pours a light brown with a beige head. Aroma has roasted malts with a distinct whiff of peaty smoke. Body is fairly solid, base has roast and toffee but it’s the peaty smoke that dominates working as an enticing spice. Finish is vaguely hoppy but it’s the smoke that follows you all the way through. 221109

Golden-brown with some chill haze. The aroma is smokey, nutty and a lightly chocolatey. Chewy malts are not very bright, but have a nice, soft caramel character nonetheless. The smoke is mellow, but keeps to the palate, never becoming understated. The earthy, chewy character continues through the finish with the smoke falling out slightly.
