He'brew Jewbelation- Year of the Date

He'brew has one of the greatest names of all American craft brewers. Their beer though not amazing, is well crafted and definitely tasty. The Jewbelation- Year of the Date is no exception. On the bottle, the caption "Half Doppelbock & Half Belgian Dubbel" was interesting enough to make me buy this beer. But was the beer rewarding enough for how much I paid ($5.89- beer is excruciatingly overpriced in Canada). I would have to say that is was a well crafted beer, but not quite worth the money. None-the-less, it was a satisfying beer drinking experience.


At 7.8% alcohol by volume, this so called half doppelbock, half dubbel is a fairly big beer, and certainly not a session beer. A beautiful dark brown body with a thin beige head. Aroma is malts, coriander, cinnamon, and yeast. Rich taste with a hint of date sweetness. A fairly enjoyable libation experience.
