Great lakes Christmas Ale in my A Christmas Story stein!!!

 

Scaldis Noel! It'll get ya drunk!

 

and the race begins, who can steal that pic and use it as their avatar the fastest? haha

 

I really do try to represent what I enjoy. I know I can not change everyone's mind about it, because a lot of folks also enjoy what they love with a passion. I am still open minded and humble enough to hear that some may think of the Italian movement as a novelty or a passing fad. Whatever the cause may be, I will be there until the end!

I actually love Italian beers so much I have printed all the information from B. United International in regards to all the Italian breweries they carry in. So many more to try!

Is there any French beers you have been enjoying?

 

Cannot wait till Deschutes gets to Chicago in January......Jubelale!!

But Great Lakes Christmas Ale, SN Celebration, Southern Tier 2x Christmas, and Winter Solstice are keeping us warm n' toasty.

 

Nah, not a fad. Italian beer is just expensive (for several reasons) and that's why people talk shit about it.

There are some great beers being produced in France, I'm quite content living here (originally from the US).

 

Just picked up the Guinness holiday case as well as the Samuel Adams seasonal case. Both are great with alot of wonderful brews really liking the Sam Adams cuz of the variety. Although Im mainly drawn to the Guinness Foreign Extra, this is a exceptional brew, with everything I love about Guinness and then some, more hops, more roasting, and double the malt it seems. Defenently going to be picking this up more often this holiday season. ​

 

Looks like I already did.

 

Currently Jubelale is topping my list but Alaskan Winter seems like it's a good winter daytime drinker.

 

Come on now. This many responses and no mention of these?

Stille Nacht
Struise Tjsjeess

I am very excited to try (hopefully) the new barrel aged verisions of Tjseess.

 

Midnight Sun Cohoho is my favorite, but I don't think I will be getting any this year.

I usually buy a case of Celebration Ale, but I really don't consider it a Christmas beer.

 

1. Celebration Ale
2. Mad Elf
3. Great Lakes Chrsitmas Ale
4. Mikkeller Hoppy Lovin' Christmas

 

Several that have already been mentioned, but I have to add Trader Joe's Vintage Ale. At 4.99 for 750 ml, also the best value around.

 

SN Celebration
Highland Cold Mountain
Brooklyn BCS
St. Bernardus Christmas
DuPont Avec Les Bon Voeux
Southern Tier 2x Xmas (pleasant surprise)

 

SN Celebration for my steady, winter-long beer.

I'd like to try the Corsendonk Christmas Ale but I've only spotted it at one local store. It's definitely been on the shelf for at least a year and a half, so it makes me wonder how long they've had it for. Think it's still ok to purchase?
