We brought you a peek at the packaging, and now the official word from Harpoon as their Winter Warmer returns for the 25th year:
At this time of year, occasions are marked with traditional seasonal food and beverage. In keeping with one such tradition, many beer lovers enjoy seasonal spiced ale to warm up the chilly nights. One of the first seasonal beers in the country, returning for its 25th year, Harpoon Winter Warmer continues to be a favorite winter tradition on those cold New England days.
This classic winter seasonal is malty and robust. The characteristic cinnamon and nutmeg dominate the beloved aroma, but are subtle on the palate. The taste is a rich combination of the holiday spices and the hearty malt backbone. There is a mild sweetness to the finish along with the lingering flavor of the spices.
Winter Warmer was Harpoon Brewery’s first seasonal beer and one of the first seasonal beers to be offered in the country. Available from late October through December, Winter Warmer complements any holiday gathering. Whether enjoying a pint with friends in a cozy pub or serving it at a large family get-together, this spiced ale adds to every winter occasion. Harpoon Winter Warmer is available in six-packs, twelve-packs, and on draft.
