WARM UP TO WINTER

Monteith's invites you to experience the taste of winter with Monteith's Winter Ale, an enlivening six per cent beer with distinct warming properties, brewed especially for the colder months.

Calder says Monteith's Winter Ale is best served at aslightly warmer temperature to enhance the aroma and flavour characteristics of the brew. 8-10 degrees is recommended.
