The holiday dark ale that started it all for the American market, Corsendonk Christmas Ale has been a year-end staple since it debuted on this side of the Atlantic. With devotees among some of America’s finest publicans and Belgian fiends alike, it’s become perhaps the brewery’s most sought-after beer. This special release comes in at a quaffable 8.1% ABV whereas most Belgian holiday ales tip the scales north of 10% and goes down all the easier for it. Add in the fact that the flavor pallet still brings the waves of flavor you expect on a winter warmer and no wonder the American market fell in love with the style!
