Fine Creek Biere de Noel 750ml

From the Brewery:

Bière de Noël, 2023

Style: Bière de Noël
ABV: 9.6%
IBU: 20
Package: 750ml Bottles

Bière de Noël is a style traditionally brewed as a celebration of winter. They are rich, strong, dark, Belgian and French Ales that are often brewed with a modest amount of spices. Ours follows in this tradition and is brewed with clove, ceylon cinnamon, sweet orange peel, and a moderate amount of vanilla.

This produces a deceptively sweet and fruity bouquet of dried fig, Glühwein, and spiced cookies. The flavor is less sweet, and features notes of dried cherries, dates, and a blend of spices from both the yeast, and the addition of cinnamon and clove. At first sip, this beer has a creamy texture and medium body, but natural carbonation and a subtle warmth, that hints to its strength, help to dry out the palate.
