Hi,
First my apologizes for too many pictures.
I simply couldn't pick out the better ones. They all have their faults, but the mass of pictures makes it just that more complete.
What a great Belgian beer !!!














Winter Helheim is Enigma's Winter Beer.
It is a massive, 12% dark beer in the quadrupel style brewed with a strongly fermenting Belgian yeast. To further enhance the beer's flavor and aroma, we lagered the beer on oak woodchips from Bourbon barrels.
Since the Santa Claus figure is strongly influenced by early Norse religion (just ask Rudolph the reindeer), we used this as inspiration for our label and name. In Norse mythology, Helheim is one of the nine worlds from which the epic battle of Ragnarök will start...
Only available in the Winter months between October and February
Technical info:
Alc: 12%
IBU: 31

Viv's tasting notes: Winter Helheim

I sure can't give better tasting notes than the one Viv posted here.
It's all so to the point and correct!!  :appauding-1: So, I can only concur your tasting notes Viv.
I sure like those malty sweet heavy beers, having that extra Bourbon wood flavor.
This is sipping slowly and enjoying every single moment till that oh so unfortunate last drop. Easy relaxing slow drinking....
It's a 100% yummy factor here...

Cheers,
Filip
