MenuEleventh Beer of Christmas 2018: Sierra Nevada Celebration IPA
On the Eleventh Day of Christmas, my brewer gave to me... Sierra Nevada's Celebration IPA!
Sierra Nevada's Celebration IPA
This season delivers the perfect harmony between malt and fresh hops. It's a welcome variation on traditional spiced winter beers.
First brewed in 1981, Celebration Ale is one of the earliest examples of an American-style IPA and one of the few hop-forward holiday beers. Famous for its intense citrus and pine aromas, Celebration is bold and intense, featuring Cascade, Centennial and Chinook hops.
The Beer
Celebration is an American IPA, which flawless combines Fresh Ale Hops with Two-row Pale and Caramel malts. This clean, crisp IPA pours a nice amber color with a fluffy white head. The aroma of fruity and piney hops wonderfully match the taste of citrus, caramel, bread and malt.
The ABV is 6.8%.
