Great article. These special beers are one of the things I love about this season. Too bad many of those won’t be available here in Houston.
Have you had Mikkeller’s Red/White Christmas? A blend of a red and a wit sounds interesting; if anyone can pull it off its Mikkeller.
My favorite holiday brew is St. Bernardus’ Christmas Ale. Nothing like a Quadrupel on a dreary winter night.
Drinking Real Ale’s Coffee Porter: Pours dark with a decent beige head. Big, big coffee aroma dominates the nose. Cola like fizz on the tongue, but very balanced between the bitterness of the toasted grains and the sweetness of the malt base. The coffee is the star here.
