Schell Snowstorm
January 1st thru January 6th
Brewer's Description
Much like snowflakes, no two Snowstorm beers are alike. Once a year, our brewmasters lock themselves in the testing room with a secret selection of fine malts and hops, only emerging when they've hit upon something truly extraordinary.
Snowstorm 2007 was inspired by the Monastic beers of Belgium. Authentic Belgian yeast produces subtle overtones of fruiit and spice. Six malts combined with a touch of Turbinado sugars help to create a complex malt character, with hints of raisins, dark fruit and rum. We hope you enjoy savoring it as much as we enjoyed making it!

Cinnamon says Snow Storm
January 15th, 2008
I had the 2007 Snow Storm when it was first released and was not impressed, I may not even have had a full bottle. I bought a 6-pack for the recent occasion though and have been surprised at how much more I enjoy the beer after drinking more than 6 ounces.Maybe it was the time of year. It was still warm(er) and maybe I wasn’t ready to let go of the summer beers. Now, I enjoy the spices and slight heffe taste. It’s bold enough to say “here I am!!” but I could also appreciate as a session beer. On a Saturday evening, I could add a six pack to my repertoire. Yes, I think I’ll get another 6-pack before the season is over. Glad I gave it another shot!
