Our winter strong ale has a gorgeous mahogany hue, a hint of hazelnuts, and a finish reminiscent of mocha and toffee. No spices, just a perfect blend of five specialty malts. Cellarable for 2 years.

Light brown, small compact head with some laces, carbonation is rather low. Sugar-candy, vanilla, rhum soaked fruit cake, caramel, ruby-red grapefruit and a bit spicy (nutmeg?). Well balanced, starts candy sweet then the hops deploy their presence with grace and elegance; never is it too sweet nor too bitter, yet the bitterness lasts for quite a long time. The body is round enough to be satisfying but the beer never feels heavy. Surprisingly refreshing, still credible as a digestive. Very enjoyable!

12oz bottle (2009) into a trappist glass. Pours red/brown with a small off-white head that fades very quickly. The aroma is malty and hints of alcohol, and the flavor is malty and a bit sweet with plenty of chocolate and coffee. On top of this there is a solid dose of hops as well. Very high carbonation.

Aroma of mocha, toffee and bourbon. Appearance is dark brown with tan head that lingered till the end. Flavor matches the nose, with some more hops, bourbon and coffee as well. Palate is creamy. Tasty, but a bit overrated.

The aroma is that musky malty sense reminding me of Belgium. It has a clear rich amber brown appearance with a small head. The flavor is clear malts with that muskiness showing but in a pleasant way.

Dark brown with amber highlights. Rich, smooth beer. If your bartender confuses your Jubilation with a Boulevard Nutcracker, your beer is the one with the delightful aroma and thick palate.

355 ml bottle. From København, Denmark.
Dark reddish brown colour with average off-white head. Sweetish dark hoppy, roasted malty aroma with some winey elements. Dark roasted malt, sweet hops, caramel in flavour. Sweet, thick and full brew.

A hazy brown pour with a large, frothy head. The aroma is a mixture apple, grapes, and caramel malt. The taste begins sweet and finishes with medium sourness. It is a full body brew with a thick texture and long finish. It leaves you with slight alcohol warmth.
