Spotlight on Our Holiday Beers

‘Tis soon the season once again, and we have beers to help you wash down all the peace on Earth and good will towards men that you can stand. Here’s a brief look at our Christmas ales.

  • Brasserie Dubuisson Scaldis Noël — ($16.99 for the 12oz bottle four-pack)

    • Belgian Christmas Ale: This is the full mother load of Belgian Noël beers — sweet, spicy, smooth, and rich. (If you could marry a beer … )

  • Brasserie D’Achouffe N’ice Chouffe — ($11.99 for the 11oz bottle four-pack)

    • Belgian Christmas Ale: Light-bodied and tasty strong brown ale with just a touch of spice on the finish.

  • Blue Mountain Lights Out — ($11.99 for the 12oz bottle six-pack)

    • Aggressively hopped Old Ale Style Ale: Blue Mountain messes with the English Old Ale style by throwing in whole flower Willamette hops.

  • Anchor Christmas Ale 2021 — ($12.99 for the 12oz bottle six-pack)

    • Winter Warmer: Different every year, made to age, a yearly holiday brew event — This year’s Anchor Christmas leans on the spice, giving small smokey taste. It will be interesting to see what this beer is like a year from now.

  • Virginia Beer Evil Santa — ($13.99 for the 16oz four-pack)

    • Spiced Milk Stout: (New to the shop this year!) When Virginia Beer Company talks about spicing this stout, they mean it! Drier than you would expect for a milk stout; cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice combine to approach “curry stout” in the taste.
