Not to brag but… because of our tight connections with Brewery Ommegang, we’ve got the hook-up on their BeerAdvocate Top 25 ranked Belgian Strong Ale: Adoration. And we didn’t stop there, we grabbed the 2014 vintage -- just wait until you taste it: a world of spiced candied-citrus complexity pours from this 10% ABV Belgian, and each sip is enhanced from over 3 years of aging.

Oh the heavenly flavor smorgasbord that’s unravelled after such long-term aging! Notes of toffee-like molasses, herbal black licorice, and a whole bowl of glazed orange slices bring new depth to Adoration after 3 years of patience. The addition of nutty citrus spiced coriander, ginger-minty cardamom, sweet nutmeg-like mace, and peppery Grains of Paradise elegantly dance around the palate like a royal ball of spiked orange marmalade.

Featured by The Boston Globe as a “Beer For A Brutal Winter,” Adoration was brewed with the strength to warm up frigid souls caught in the snow. This 2014 vintage is for those winter cave dwellers who, even while hibernating in t-shirts and sweatpants, crave a taste of Belgian sophistication.

*Serve at 50 degrees Fahrenheit.
