Trader Joe's (Unibroue) Vintage Ale *2015 Beer Review

Trader Joe’s Vintage Ale is a beer brewed by Unibroue for Trader Joe’s as a celebratory beer so to speak. This 9% ABV Belgian Strong Dark Ale as reviewed here is that of the 2015 vintage which I had in the cellar and decided to finally try. It is no longer in production but still worth a look and still in good shape as far as its sustainability. How did I find this beer? The beer was dark, sweet, smooth and boozy along with notes of licorice and clove to say the least however overall it was a tasty one that at $5.99 a bottle was a great deal. I rated this one a 4 out of 5 and would definitely recommend checking out the other vintages if you have any Trader Joe’s near you.
