Lots of people, particularly hard to buy for men, like a good brew!
There are many unique and special Christmas beers on offer each year
that would make a pleasant surprise as a gift. They also make an
interesting and topical conversation addition to festive
celebrations. Brewers all around the world make special Christmas
labels and beers that are considered by many to be the most sort
after and best beers of the year! Many of the top Christmas beers
are on display at the number one Christmas beer festival in the
world held in Essen, Belgium each year in December. A great place to
visit for the true beer connoisseur!
Here are some great companies that offer unique specialty brews for
Christmas:
1.
Very Bad Elf Special Reserve Ale! A classic English bitter
ale. It has a slightly sweet body with a spicy flavor based on a
recipe from 1795 which uses Fuggles hops (dates back to the mid
1800s). A highly recommended beer! Check out: www.sheltonbrothers.com
2.
Beer Man Sez: Merry Christmas and a Hoppy New Beer! A weaker
strength beer for those watching their alcohol yet it is rich with
creamy chocolate tones and a slight toasted flavor (English-style
hops). Check out: www.bigskybrew.com
3.
Scrooge & Marley Hazelnut Christmas Alemm. Definitely a
unique name and blend for the holiday season! Check out:

4.
Anchor Steam Christmas Ale The Ale recipe is different every
year as is the label! This ale’s motto is to celebrate the newness
of life. Check out: http://www.anchorbrewing.com/beers/christmasale.htm
5.
Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale This is one you definitely want
to put under your Christmas tree and make a beer lover very happy
this season! This is a dry hopped ale with an intense aroma has been
specially brewed for the holidays. Renowned for its great hop taste
this celebration ale has been a Gold Medal Winner!
As
you can see from the above sample there are some wacky to
traditional named Christmas beers. Of course there are still the
popular favorites on offer but dressed up for the holiday season
such as “Bud Light Holiday Six Packs”
http://www.anheuser-busch.com/news/BudLightHoliday110705.htm with Christmas themed wrapping of snow bulbs, holly and Christmas
trees which are eye catching and festive. More ale companies are
preparing for Christmas by adding extra ingredients to flavor their
standard recipes during the holiday season and dressing them up by
adding special Christmas wrapping to ensure something really special
for ale lovers over the holiday season. Remember always encourage
drinking in moderation and enjoy being adventurous and try some new
Christmas beers this season!
