The beer for today was
2012-2013 Winter Welcome Ale from Samuel Smith Old Brewery, Tadcaster, Yorkshire, England.
6% Alc./Vol.
I have had a taste of this brew from last years edition, and thought it was good, but I don’t remember it being this good! They did a good job this year, 5 out of 5!
The label says;
This seasonal beer is 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.
