Pyramid Snow Cap
Barley's Christmas Ale and Jack Frost Barley Wine

I really enjoy many of the Sam Adams seasonal brews. Winter Brew has more alcohol in it and is a bit stronger but still some good stuff.

Sam Adams Octoberfest is very good, but so hard to find

Sam Adams Winter Lager is nice, been drinking a good bit of it this year

The brew in my hand, that's the best one...

I really like what the folks at Honker Ale do with seasonal brews.

Thanks for reminding me. There's a bar a couple of blocks from my apartment that's generally considered the best whiskey bar in America--Delilah's. Their beer selection isn't too shabby either. Each December, they hold a Christmas Ale tasting with about 100 different seasonal beers from around the world available for, I think, $15.

With the merger and everything else that's going on on my end, I probably would have let it slip this year. Now I'll remember to put it on my calendar.

Oh yeah, I've always like the Great Lakes. I'm not a fan of normal Sierra Nevada at all, but do like their Christmas ale. Samuel Smith's makes a great seasonal too.

Do you mean Goose Island Beer Company? They have a Christmas Ale and their seasonal Bourbon County Stout is incredible.

It isn't just one of your holiday games;
You may think at first I'm mad as a hatter
When I tell you a cat must have three
different names."
