Better late than never!

I’m sure that, like me, you’ve been busy getting ready for the holidays.  Parties, shopping, gifts, entertaining, making Christmas CD’s, spending time with family and friends.  While all of that is very conducive to drinking good beer, it leaves little time for blogging.

So over the next two days, I promise to catch up on the last few days, and prepare for the end of this quest.

Last Monday’s beer was Avery’s Old Jubilation Ale is an Old English Style Ale, and pours a deep mahogany color.  While this ale tastes like it has spices and flavors, the taste is actually accomplished through a blend of five specialty malts.

The ale has a bit of a sweetness, and a higher (8.3%) alcohol content.  Pretty good, but I’d probably stop at one of these.
