No Worries Driving Home For Christmas

A seasonal 0.5% dark Christmas ale from Lervig, built on roasted malts and cinnamon. More warming and wintry than the rest of the No Worries range.

About This Drink

Most of the No Worries range leans pale and hoppy. Driving Home For Christmas goes in a different direction: darker malts, cinnamon, and the kind of malt-forward warmth that signals the holiday season rather than a summer afternoon. The aroma is all roasted caramel, dark malt and a clear hit of cinnamon spice. On the palate the roast character comes through first - not bitter or ashy, just the rounded depth you get from darker malts - with the cinnamon weaving in from the mid-palate. It finishes clean without the syrupy sweetness that catches out some spiced Christmas beers. Like the rest of the No Worries lineup it's brewed with Lervig's maltose-averse yeast, so the 0.5% ABV comes from the brewing process rather than alcohol removal. It's a seasonal release, so availability tends to be limited to the run-up to Christmas. If you like your festive beer to actually taste festive, this one earns its brief window on the shelf.
