Must try holiday beers

While I LOVE a number of Christmas Ales, my only 'must, must have' Christmas beer is St. Bernardus Christmas. I also enjoy Jolly Pumpkin's Noel offering, Delirium Noel, Goose Island's Sixth Day, Scaldis Noel, and a great number of others. Oh, and Celebration

 

I really like doppelbocks this time of year.

 

I'm digging 4 Elf from Dark Horse as well. I have never been big on baking spices in beer but this works for me. Great gingerbread taste without the ginger (I hate ginger). I like this enough that I went back and purchased another 4 pack yesterday.

 

Recently I had FFF Alpha Klaus and it was bomb as fuck. I also tried Prairie
The Beer That Saved Christmas, which had a unique tart taste, I definitely recommend both of them.

 

Feest Noel by Three Taverns tastes like a liquid Christmas cookie.

 

Get some Robinson's Old Tom if you can. It's not a seasonal, but it's a great beer for winter. I've had a lot of strong ales that disappointed me, but this one really hits the spot.

 

Going to try Corsendonk Christmas Ale this year. It has been in my cellar since it was given to me last January.

 

Nogne O God Jul of course.

 

LAGER DISCRIMINATION!

 

Great Lakes Christmas, hands down

 

Double Mountain Fa La La La La

Well don't beat me up for this, but I really enjoy Sam Adams Winter Lager. It's been a great sleeper for me this year.

 

Don't know why OP doesn't like lagers...but...

Avery Old Jubilation.

 

Alpha Klause. that's really about it. cant stand spiced beers

 

Boulevard Nutcracker Ale
Breckenridge Christmas Ale

 

Had Great Lakes Christmas Ale again tonight. Such a fantastic beer.

 

Jubelale. Will be buying this again for x-mas.

 

yea and take that thread title as a PURE joke, you can name ANY beer/ale whatever u want to.

 

My 2012 favorite was Silent Night brewed by Mother Earth Brewing. Have not gotten the 2013 version. Sweetwater Festive Ale has my vote for 2013.
