Deschutes 2012 Jubelale

Deschutes Brewery (Bend, OR)
winter, Winter Ale | 6.7% ABV

COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION:

A dark, malty celebration ale with layered flavors and beautifully balanced hopping. Jubelale pours deep garnet in color, medium bodied, with notes of chicory, earth, spice and fruit. To beer lovers, it's like Yule fire and family. Malt: Pale, Crystal, Extra Special, Carapils, Roasted Barley Hops: Nugget, Cascade, Willamette, Styrian, Tettnang, East Kent Goldings The 2012 label is literally "layered" with meaning - the artwork, titled "Revelers and Troubadors," was created through a complex collaging process by artist Kaycee Anseth Townsend. She uses small scraps of paper to create designs, and she comprised this year's packaging entirely from pieces of past year's Jubelale labels. You might even recognize a scrap or two from years gone by inside the incredibly intricate final design. And if you need to brush up on your Jubelale trivia, here's a document (pdf) that covers the complete history of this Festive Winter Ale.
