Dec 26, 2006 on tap-pours an off white head and amber color. Aroma is sweet malt, secondary hops. Taste is bitter grapefruit rind hops, secondary malt-sweet/caramel. OK carbonation.

Nov 30, 2005 On tap at the brewpub. Was at the bar with AdamSkillin (who is now a bartender at LVP&B). Supposedly this year’s batch is at a slightly higher ABV, 7% or slightly higher. Definitely a full beer, generous malt, generous hops. Kind of like a winter warmer but with some cascade hops. Real good stuff. p.s. The nachos flung me against the ropes and clotheslined me as I flew back.

Jan 6, 2005 This beer is a celebration of the winter solstice. So if you drink it, you’re definitely a pagan.
But, if you’re thinking about doing a naked dance in the woods, please pick up a growler of Celebration Ale (actually, you just missed it, you’ll have to wait for next year’s batch)
They advertise it as "intensely hopped." I wouldn’t say intensely, but it has a delightful hop fragrance, with some malt to back it up. Sort of like your posse.

Dec 12, 2004 Tap at LVBP. To be honest, this is the best brew that I have had at this BP in a long time. Distinctively hoppy aroma, with some maltiness. Flavor has a nutty maltiness to it that is rather pleasant. Nice hop character in the flavor and bitterness. Very malty balance. Easy drinking, yet packs a bit of a punch. Would satisfy the beer geek as well as the common-folk.
