COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Jubelale is classified as a "Strong Ale" or an "English Olde Ale," and has ties to the traditional Celebration Ales of England. Characterized by a very large malt body and pronounced bitterness, Jubelale contains five different varieties of hops and a healthy amount of caramel. The perfect ale for surviving the long, cold nights of winter. Our tradition is having a different local artist design our Jubelale label & packaging each year. October - December - draft and bottles

Boutip (3294) - Gatineau, Quebec, CANADA - OCT 12, 2009
Bottle: Poured a a dark cloudy brown color ale with a large foamy head with good retention but no lacing. Aroma of caramel malt with some notes of toffee and warming notes. Taste is very comforting with loads of caramel and toffee malt with some light dry fruits. Body is fuller then average with good carbonation and no apparent alcohol. Well done though additional dry fruits notes would have benefited this beer.

HonkeyBra (2217) - Lemont, Illinois, USA - OCT 11, 2009
Sampled at GABF. Pretty cool to try this one, because there’s no way I’d ever see it around here. Good, toffee aroma. Some fruit. Nice, chocolatey strong ale. Pretty good. Wouldn’t go out of my way to find it though.

durhambeer (2028) - Durham, North Carolina, USA - OCT 5, 2009
Bottle. I expected more of a spicy winter brew, so was surprised that this beer was more about complex malts. Sweet malty nose and taste, with a healthy hop presence as well. Poured amber and in some ways reminded me of an amber-style ale, but better. Not bad, but nothing amazing here.

drjay44 (1615) - Salida, Colorado, USA - OCT 3, 2009
Pitcher pour at 2009 GABF. Pours a minimal off white head, with some lacing, over a clear coppery amber (SRM 12-14) body.....nose medium malts with some toffee, caramel, mild floral hop finish....taste mild, slightly sweet malt to start(toffee, caramel), then medium hop bitterness....mouth feel is medium.The malt back bone is relatively dominate. This is another entirely drinkable and enjoyable creation by Deschutes. Tasting of 9/26/09.
