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!

Kassie says Tasty
January 4th, 2008
After a long day of sitting around my house doing nothing, this beer hit the spot.
I generally like Schell’s beers, but I don’t buy them often. This is the best of their beers I have ever tasted.
It was sweet and smooth. I was happily surprised by how much body it has. I wasn’t expecting any, so the amount it had made me happy. More would have been better. In a glass, it is gorgeous, just really pretty. The alcohol content must have been more than a normal beer because my husband got a buzz off of just one, or so he said.
Overall, much better than expected. I would absolutely pick up another six pack.
