Expert description of Midtfyns Bryghus Jule Stout

The beer is brewed with star anise, English liquorice and fennel seed, offering a full-bodied, sweet flavour experience with classic Christmas character.

This black stout has a lovely, creamy head and an intense malt profile lending both depth and warmth.
