I confess, I love all things Christmas. I like to finish my shopping by Thanksgiving, and then just enjoy. I'll do things like, wrap the presents slowly. Light pine tree candles and listen to Christmas music. I'll go ice skating. I will drink eggnog. And mulled wine. And watch Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer for the umpteenth time. I like to do and feel all things holiday. This year I did add something different to the mix. Christmas Ale from Anchor Steam. How is this my first time?! Anchor has been putting these beers out for...45 years! Yep, 45 years of Christmas beer. It's available now through mid January. Like any good Winter beer, it's limited edition. Why? Because they are special. They put you in the mood...in the holiday spirit. drinking one of these wouldn't exactly feel right in...say...May. I hope you have a happy, health holiday season, spent with friends/family, and good beer.
