St. Bernardus Christmas Ale is a 10% ABV bottle-conditioned Belgian quadrupel brewed in Watou, Belgium. It is top fermented and bottle conditioned, with secondary fermentation in the bottle. The St. Bernardus house yeast strain has been in continuous use since 1946. The aroma brings fresh-baked bread, warming alcohol, herbal and earthy hop tones, baked stone fruits, roasted nuts and semi-sweet malt. The palate is bold and generously sweet, with raisins, dark cherries, ginger, cinnamon, clove, fermented molasses, apricots, licorice, marzipan, creamy caramel and fire-roasted chestnut. The finish is long and warming, with dried fruits, bittersweet chocolate, mint-like aniseed and residual spice.
