    I'm sharing an Indeed Old Friend in my Santa boot (tradition). It's very tasty. How about you?

    2011 St. Bernardus Xmas Ale with "Christmas Eve" dinner last night - quite tasty! Also had my first Speedway Stout before dinner. I will be excited if Alesmith actually comes to Wisconsin soon because i definitely want more...

    Town Hall Elves Elixir. Strong Baltic porter, and damn tasty. Merry Christmas you drunken idiots.

    I picked up a St. Bernardus Xmas (2012) that I was going to save for next year but I kind of want it now. Think it'll improve that much that its worth waiting?

    We're on board the St. Bernadus Xmas train. Just opened a 2011, and it was really tasty. Next was a Fantome Noel - kind of "meh" in my opinion. On to bigger and better! Happy Holidays everyone!

    Auroch's Horn on Rhubarb. Had been holding on to an extra bottle and it just seemed right for Christmas Eve.

    Just sitting down to a bottle of New Glarus Belgian Red with my wife. It's a great way to wrap up an evening of stuffing stockings, assembling toys, and taking care of Santa's duties.

    I actually haven't had it fresh, but i wouldn't expect one year to make a huge difference. It's pretty tasty, i'd say drink it now and if you really like it, grab another for the cellar!

    Had an Oro de Calabaza from 2010, Westvleteren 12, SN Celebration and a 5 Golden Rings. All split with my Dad on one of the best Christmas eves to date.
