A seasonal favorite. Cranberry Claus is a tart cranberry ale reminescent of Nana’s holiday ambrosia.

A fruited sour hiding in plain sight as an ale - kinda brilliant but kinda sneaky as well...
...If you're not into sours like I am, this is a definite change-of-pace that sits sorta okay. It's beautifully red, it has a deliciously sweet cranberry scent (hiding the fact that it is sour as all get out.) Once you put it up to your lips, the senses in your mouth will correct all this misconceptions your eyes and nose gave you. Sour as a cranberry can be, well carbonated to the point where it detracts, it's really still a good beer and one that kinda hits the spot during the holidays...

On tap at the brewery's pub in downtown Titusville. Revisited in January 2023 with a 12 oz can from the Brix location.
Appearance. Clear dark rose (or watery cranberry) body with a very good white head.
This has a fruity aroma bit with more vanilla. The flavor follows. Sweet but not cloying despite too much vanilla.

Nice tart prickly carbonation, cranberry and orange peel with a touch of vanilla, like a orange zest candy cane.
