About

Spencer Trappist Holiday Ale is a Belgian Strong Ale at 9% ABV, brewed by the monks of Spencer Brewery in Massachusetts—America's first official Trappist brewery. This mahogany-hued ale presents fuller and more complex than its alcohol content suggests. The nose reveals layers of spice—ginger, cinnamon, clove and coriander—complemented by dark fruit and raisin notes. The palate brings pleasant sweetness balanced by spicy and bitter character, while the finish turns dry and spiced. Unfiltered and unpasteurized, the beer expresses its full monastic character with a smooth, integrated warmth.
