Bell's Hell Hath No Fury Ale

      Bell's has pleased and puzzled me.  I was not particularly pleased with their Christmas Ale, but have enjoyed some of their other offerings.  I like the bottle.  Anyway, Fury pours out black with a fresh mocha nose.  Well, this is a step up, with lush mocha and coffee flavors.  There is a burnt smoky character on the finish and nice medium hop throughout.  It also has a nice sweetness to it and lovely body with a 7.5% ABV.  Fury is superbly balanced  with sweet and smoky,  Alcohol and hop, and big mocha and coffee flavors.  This is a very good beer and this should be one of their Winter Seasonals, it's a great cold weather beer.  Highly recommended.

Bell's Amber Ale

The Bell's Brewery in Kalamazoo Michigan is one and one with me. Their Two Hearted Ale is very good while I found their Winter White to be bad. But since I'm trying Amber's I thought I would grab their's and see which of those earlier beers was the fluke. Bell's Amber is a cloudy amber with a bit of stuff floating around in it. It's got a strong caramel nose with crisp hop and a tinge of yeast. This has nice honey and caramel with a very balanced hop throughout. The finish is really short, but this is just a nice beer to drink. Great flavors, a nice refreshing crisp bite make this a good every day beer. So far second only to the superb Railbender. I would definitely recommend picking up a sixer.
