Holiday-ish beers, Round 2: 2° Below

By Jennifer McClellan • Nov 18th, 2008 • Category: Tasting notes

For some parts of the country, freezing temperatures and falling snow arrive before winter officially begins. So New Belgium, the brewery known for taking cues from nature, has released a warming winter brew a month before December, and named it for the chilly temperature, 2° Below, at which only a beer can satisfy you. The rich Belgian-style brew is dry-hopped using Sterling and Liberty hops and tawny-roasted malts, which combine to create a floral nose with spicy undertones. Available now through the New Year, 2° Below is everything you’d want in a winter brew: sweetness and spice and everything nice.
