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

An amber beer with a huge orange head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of hops and hints of roasted malt. The flavor is sweet and very roasted, but also woody and with a dry hoppy finish.

From tap at Pizza Port Carlsbad. Pours clear and golden deep golden hazzlenut brown with a small white head. Overripe fruity aroma, dense caramel malt note. Flavour has the same with a good hoppy counter balance. Smooth fruity and bitter finish. Nicely balanced.

Holiday seasonal strong ale, with a good balance between citrusy flavours, flowery hop; malt; and a soft fruitiness (apple, pear).

Ruby to chestnut coloured. Nice foamy cover lasts and sticks to the glass sides. Nutty and distinctive aroma of smoke, peaty and earthy. Excellent balance between the malt and hops ingredients. Spicy winter notes, minty (toothpaste), cinnamon, nutmeg and grapes… Inviting to say the least. Quite warming in mouth despite the relatively low ABV, slightly oily palate, light-medium body, very low carbonation level. Pleasant spiced dark fruits flavours work mysteriously well with the hops where I’d have thought this would bring some undesired astringence. Bready, coniferous and slightly citrusy. No Jubel 2000 deepness, but still one of the best I’ve had from Deschutes, more so than their acclaimed dark beers.
