Alaskan Brewing Co. Winter Ale
This Alaskan interpretation of an English Old Ale delivers a comforting, malty richness essential for the winter season. The core displays deep toffee and caramel malt complexity, accented by the distinctive, sweet resinous aroma of Sitka spruce tips. While adhering to the traditional warming profile of the style, it introduces a unique Pacific Northwest twist, balancing heady forest notes with the clean, spicy finish of noble hops. At 6.4% ABV, the alcohol provides a gentle, well-integrated glow that complements the beer’s velvety texture, resulting in a seasonal warmer that is both traditionally robust and geographically evocative.
Appearance. Deep copper to dark reddish-brown with a creamy, light tan head that shows moderate retention and fine lacing. The liquid is clear with a brilliant mahogany glow when held to the light.
Aroma. High intensity malt-driven profile featuring rich caramel, toffee, and a hint of molasses. This is uniquely elevated by the sweet, resinous, and forest-like aroma of Sitka spruce tips. Subtle dried fruit esters and a light, floral, and spicy noble hop character linger in the background.
Taste. Luscious malt complexity leads with flavors of toasted nuts and dark caramel. The Sitka spruce tips contribute a distinct piney sweetness and a touch of berry-like fruitiness that integrates seamlessly with the English yeast esters. Bitterness is moderate, providing enough structure to balance the malty start, leading to a clean, slightly warming finish.
Mouthfeel. Medium-full, chewy body with a smooth, velvety texture. Carbonation is moderate, providing a gentle lift to the palate. A mild, comforting alcohol warmth is present, consistent with a winter warmer.
