Agree about the Celebration Ale-- you'd think I'd be getting tired of it after all these years, but each year it continues to impress me with its combination of high yet not outdone hopping along with a clean, crisp maltiness. I generally like Avery beers, but I had a Jubilation last night and think its a bit sharp or something for my tastes. Enjoying a Delirium Noel right now. Nothing great, but very pleasant. Can't wait for Samichlaus to show up on tap in town-- Perhaps the ultimate holiday beer. -- Joel Plutchak "They're not people, they're HIPPIES!" $LASTNAME at VERYWARMmail.com - Eric Cartman |

I've read two reports on the beer forums of Eggenberg re-introducing the old "Light" (as in color, not calories) version of Samichlaus- labeled "Helles" - this year (which had been dropped by Feldschlösschen in the mid-80's). Oddly, both reports were from Idaho- not exactly a beer mecca or even a notable test market, tho' probably a region where a strong winter beer is welcome. |
