Holiday Beer Part 3

posted by john


One of the best things about the coming seasonal tradition is that everyone makes beer especially for the occasion. You can love, hate, or just be indifferent about being forced to celebrate but you cannot ignore the beer.

There are so many that you can try. But we started with what we consider to be the grand father of this style.

Beers on the Show:
Two homebrew, Anchor Holiday, Siearra Nevada Celebration and 21st Amendment Holiday Spiced Ale.

Homework
Try something made for the holiday in a bottle or at your local.
