I think it's not entirely ABV either. I look for bigness in other areas of complexity...and think sometimes a few BW's should be in a Category called Xmas Ale.<br /><br />I am one of the group of Brew Crew Members who host a series of DIFFERENT pdxJuleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07700124195380175771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21271644.post-37416751314340876712009-10-15T09:50:28.820-07:002009-10-15T09:50:28.820-07:00@ Ryan

The raw ingredients that go into making the heavier ale styles may have only slight nuances, but new varieties of apples actually have different lineages.
