Shmaltz He'brew Jewbilation
At D's Six Pax and Dogz in Pittsburgh I ordered a glass of Shmaltz He'brew Jewbilation Bar Mitzvah. This is the thirteenth anniversary of this beer and the ingredients include 13 hops and 13 malts. The beer has a deep black color with a tan thick head. There is a small hop hint in the malt aroma. The taste consists of burnt hops with a nice hop balance. I can pick up some honey flavor with chocolate and toffee. It should also not be a surprise that the thirteen theme is continued with an alcohol content that is 13% ABV. I thought that this was an excellent beer and was not too dry. The alcohol is not too overpowering despite being so high, but it does find a way to warm you up during the colder months.

Hey Jeff. This is Zak Davis from Shmaltz Brewing Company. I'm really glad you enjoyed the Jewbelation Bar Mitzvah. We really tried to make it manageable for a 13% alcohol beer. Thanks so much for the support. I hope you have a healthy and happy holiday and new year. L'Chaim!! ~Zak
