    I haven't had many, but I really like Saint Arnold Christmas...

    I did today see Anchor Brewing Company Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2010... didn't get it because I had no idea how or if it ages well.

    THoughts?

    Frambozen, 2 cases will be consumed this Winter between my wife and I (it's about the only brew she really likes).

    I thought about trying the st Arnold. Im new to craft beer and trying to find a good one. Tried Sam adams winter lager. It was good but not great. Saw great lakes quite often lately, reviews on that are good as well.

    I have had the Sam Adams... I think the Saint Arnold is much better... I've always had it on tap... several times the last two years... going to pick up a six pack soon.

    um nobody said celebration yet.

    I like SN Celebration, SA Fezziwig/Holiday Porter, Mad Elf, Brooklyn BCS, Narrangannsett Porter. I think that covers my winter seasonal must buys.

    I am assuming we are not talking strictly about winter warmers here, so: Founders Imperial, SN Celebration, gotta have at least 1 Fantome Noel, Sam Adams holiday pack, BCBS (usually makes it to Mo around late November), Snow day even though it is not great, Goose Island Mild Winter and Christmas Ale, Hibernation, Old Jubilation, Mephistopholes, usually get a Krampus, and, of course, Our Special Ale to name a few.
