16 years and running, this week is the official Deschutes Brewery release of their annual Winter Warmer, Jubelale (Bend Pub release party September 21 at 5:30 PM). One of Deschutes quitesential brews and a seasonal favorite. Is it me or does the Jubelale release seem to come earliler and earlier every year, may it’s just me but it sure feels like it or maybe I’m just getting older. This distinctive brew weighing in at 6.7% ABV, it’s just strong enough to make you forget how cold it is outside. One of the best seasonal beers around, Jubelale will warm your heart and reminds you that snow is on the way. Plus there’s a new label every year, this years is one of my favorites.
This year, Oregon artist Natasha Bacca’s unique “creation of light” adorns the label. Bacca says, “This piece illustrates a cold winter night in the background with a dynamic warm fire in the foreground. I wanted the composition of the work to exhibit a balance of cool scenery elements with the warm and energetic celebrations of the season, exemplifying this festive time of year.”
