    Good morning @dcotom and all!

    It’s been a tradition at this point and for some years, that you hold these threads for a good week up until new year eve and I’m perfectly fine with it.

    No Christmas beer but… St Bernardus Abt 12 May count as one?

    Merry Christmas then, this evening we’re having this typical family dinner. Wonder what I’ll find under the Christmas tree at my uncle and aunt place.

    Cheers!

    Merry Christmas Eve @dcotom ! I have a touch of insomnia. Woke up super early and too early for me to imbibe. Thanks for the great start to Christmas Eve WAYDN.

    Good morning/afternoon BAs! Thanks @dcotom for today’s fine opening; I look forward to your holiday posts every year!

    The dogs were fine on their brisk 34° walk this morning…home and heating up with some fresh coffee - KBS:

    Bottled 9/13/22. Poured at 52°. I already feel warmer. I covered the Golden Mound hedge (it easily freezes/sustains damage) yesterday evening, ad well as the flowering Hibiscus, in the front yard.

    I don’t think we got a hard freeze here last night, but better safe than sorry.

    I finished the last of my holiday shopping yesterday (including beer run), so I plan on spending the weekend at home, inside. Cheers and have a Happy Christmas Eve y’all!

    There is always something very crisp and inviting about you photos. Even though I never crave beer in the morning, your early morning posts make want to crack one open. Cheers.

    Merry Christmas Eve! It's a bright, sunny, 5° morning here in North Jersey. Busy day ahead so I'm fortifying myself with some Péché Mortel. Festive cheers!

    Thank you, much appreciated, I really like to shoot outdoors, not sure if anyone would notice but I've recently been taking my pictures with an iPhone which makes it really easy to get good shots. You've posted some great shots over the years too!

    G'day and Merry Christmas Eve all!

    I'm drinking another Melvin Magnus Double Barrel. An English Barleywine. As per the brewery's description:

    Barleywine brewed with Maple sugar and aged in Bourbon and Cognac barrels.

    A portion of this beer was first aged in 20 year old Remy Martin XO barrels before being transferred into Blanton's Bourbon barrels. The other portion of this blend was aged in Willet and Woodford Reserve Bourbon barrels.

    Magnificent beer!

    Prost!

    Isn't Grinch Kool Aid Fizz designed for roast turkey? I'm curious: Is Lollipop Forest dry, semi-dry, or sweet?

    NBW cross-post. @eppCOS, I completed a Hoth 10-K this morning. -20-degree Fahrenheit wind chill. @Beersnake1, all week I looked forward to running six miles under harsh conditions, then experiencing this beer. I needed to earn this moment. It was so worth it!
