This is our second season of the Snowfield. We made this year’s version based on previous batches, but changing things up to hit a new season. This winter, we pulled back on the crystal malts (don’t worry there’s still plenty in there!) to make the beer slightly less sweet. We increased the hopping rates slightly but still used 100% centennial (flavor and aroma). This produced a slightly more bitter and hop forward beer that is nicely balanced by the chocolaty, sweet malt backbone and higher alcohol %. A big, silky mouthfeel, perfect for something that would be considered a “winter warmer”.
