Yes folks, winter is just about on our doorstep once more and that means it’s time for our James Squire winter limited release to hit the market. Over recent years we have treated you to some varied and interesting wintery delights. In 2008 it was Pepperberry Winter Ale with woody & spicy -peppery warming characters of the Australian Mountain Pepperberry suspended in a dark delight. Last year we saw the return of the perennial favourite Hop Thief Ale. This was the third edition of this very popular hop focussed ale and without doubt we will return with a HT4 at some stage in the future, but not this winter. This year we have gone with a more malt accentuated brew, appropriately (we think) named the Malt Runner. This beer borrows its name from the role James Squire played in establishing beer as an alternative to rum in the early colony. The beer is a rich malty lager with 5.2% abv which has utilised crystal & chocolate malts and gifted with the addition of around 15% cherry juice late to the kettle. The result is an intruiging blend of bitter chocolate with the subtle influence of cherry both on the flavour and also via a reddish hue evident within the brew.
