Sean Suggests for December 2015
Holiday Ale time is one of my favorites and each year brings new beers to add to the winter classics from Anchor and Sierra Nevada and Deschutes. Here are two newbies to the snow scene and a British favorite for your holiday drinking.
~LIGHT
Samuel Smith/ Winter Welcome 6.00% ABV
“This seasonal beer is a limited edition brewed for the short days and long nights of winter. The full body resulting from fermentation in ‘stone Yorkshire squares’ and the luxurious malt character, which will appeal to a broad range of drinkers, is balanced against whole-dried Fuggle and Golding hops with nuances and complexities that should be contemplated before an open fire.”
~MEDIUM
Eagle Rock/ All Your Oats 8.00% ABV
“2015 has been a year of change in our industry, so why should the holiday season be any different? This year, instead of celebrating the holidays with Jubilee (our gingerbread-spiced ale), we celebrate with Hops and oats. In fact, we decided to be greedy and use all the oat ingredients we could find. Oat malt, Flaked oats, and Golden Naked Oats provide a soft, silky background for those piney, resinous hops, reminiscent of another familiar holiday aroma- Christmas trees!”
~DARK
Ironfire/ Ginger Dead Man?% ABV
“Merry Christmas Outlaws – We are proud to release our new HolidALE brew. Introducing Ginger Dead Man! It is a liquid ginger bread cookie brewed with brown sugar, molasis, allspice, cinnamon and of course GINGER!”
