Plum Pudding, a traditional British pudding at Christmas, who’d have thought they’d try it in a beer?
The guys at Wiper and True have certainly given it a good go, and they’ve succeeded in ensuring that the fruity spicy notes of plum pudding y come through strongly. The brew is quite bitter, as a porter should be, and undoubtedly tastes of Christmas.
Possibly a little too strong on the plum pudding taste for my personal tastes (I am actually not a fan of plum pudding). Having said this, it’s an interesting tipple to track down if you’re a beer lover looking for something a little different.
