    I'll add ST Krampus and Bell's Winter White (I wish I could get their Christmas Ale)

    Corsendonk for me every year.
    Great Lakes Christmas Ale on draft is also excellent.

    Celebration, Old Fezziwig's, and SA Winter Lager (holds a special place because it was the first winter/Christmas seasonal I ever tried.)

    Corsendonk Christmas is my favorite real Christmas beer. N'Ice Chouffe is also up there. For beers that come out during the holiday season that I drink large quantities of, but aren't really Christmas beers: Sucks and Celebration.

    Lost Coast Winterbraun just entered my top 10 tonight! I love most winter brews tho... the malt, the spice... Nothing like sitting by a fire with the woman you love and your faithful dog to make all of your everyday BS fade away... sip by sip... touch by touch...

    St. Nikolaus Bock Bier out of Penna Brewing Co in Pittsburgh

    Two of my absolute favs as well (St. Bernardus Christmas and Affligem Noel)...I think the Bernardus may be my favorite Christmas ale period...Delirium Noel CAN be delicious, but I've found some vintages to be better than other. Hook Norton's Twelve Days is also nice, as is (especially the new, 7.8% abv) Boulevard Nutcracker.

    Southern Tier 2XMAS may be the new kid on the block, but it tastes just like Christmas in a bottle- definitely a worthy addition.
