Semper Ardens Christmas Ale has a warm burgundy colour and a creamy head. It is brewed from a generous mix of gently dried and roasted malt, which add to the beer's body and its christmassy aroma marked by caramel and nuts. The aroma is accompanied by the added spices, star anise and coriander along with nice aromatic hops.
The richness of the beer, as well as the nice balance and high alcohol content make it particularly suitable for Christmas foods, such as roasted duck and goose.
