Earlier this year we reviewed Firebrand Brewing Company’s range of what we agreed were excellent beers; we were all impressed with their fine lagers and on-trend IPAs.
So, when we were asked if we would like to sample Silent Night, the award-winning Cornish brewery’s newest beer, designed specifically to toast the festive season, it was a unanimous ‘yes’ from us.
Silent Night Christmas Ale (4.5% ABV) was officially launched on 1 November and more than lived up to expectations.
This amber ale, produced using Mosaic hops, is rich and full-bodied, yet very easy drinking and refreshing when served chilled.
The Christmas elements comes flooding in with caramel, almost burnt toffee and roasted nuts, which the brewers have balanced extremely well with malty flavours that underpin this hearty seasonal ale.
This is essentially Christmas in a can and we’re very much looking forward to the festive season.
