    It's a shame we don't have the "Classic Quotes" any more. This would be a winner.

    I just brewed a Holiday Cheer Ale. It won't be ready for another 5 weeks. I wonder if this is similar. I will try it.

    The spices are nutmeg, cinnamon, and orange zest.

    I love the Christmas Ale, it's my favorite beer ever! It's clear now why God and Max are on such good terms. The man is smart.

    It's good that all these people are willing to try some new beers. If you like it, you may find yourself entering a new world of flavor in which, after you learn what's going on, it tastes terrible. And that will be a glorious day, a day within which you will understand the gravitas that is, say, Houblon Chouffe Dobbelen IPA Tripel.

    I have never tried it. If it is that good, perhaps we should ring in the holiday season by knocking a couple back together.

    has anyone tried Shiners Cheer christmas ale? didn't even know they made one, but i had a few pints last night at the bier haus and thought it was delicious... it's a little sweeter and lighter than most other christmas ales with a pronounced fruity aftertaste, but i thoroughly enjoyed it.

    picked up a sixer of st. arnolds christmas yesterday but didn't find anchor's offering at central market... gonna have to score some of shiners as well.

    i passed over celebration ale, but will probably cave and buy some again this year just to remind myself why i find it so overrated.

    I tried this last night.

    At first I was like WHOAH! and then I was like woof.

    I've got a 5 pack of St. Arnold's Christmas Ale for sale.
