As the days become cooler, it is time to put away the light lagers and ales and ponder stronger beers.

With an alcohol content of 5.7 percent, Late Harvest Autumn Ale won’t knock your socks off, but it is a nice segue before the winter months make strong ales such as barleywine more tempting.

Late Harvest is an amber-colored ale that features a portion of specialty grains such as crystal, German smoked Munich, caramel and roasted malts and Northern Brewer and Saaz hops. They make a good combination. The slight sweetness from the crystal and caramel malts blends well with the slightest hint of smokiness from the Munich grains, and the roasted flavor is also slight, but noticeable.
