Ho! Ho! Ho! It’s that wonderful time of the year when breweries everywhere pull out all the stops to deliver festive, holiday brews. As Santa loads his sleigh, Stephen & Gabe set out on a mission to break down a variety of Christmas ales from around the country. A holiday beer can be many things, proven once again this year as we sample everything from IPA to Belgian Ale, from milk stout to cherry Kriek. And with three of the four beers clocking in at more than 10% ABV, this is one of our booziest episodes in recent memory. Featuring two returning breweries and two HOP newcomers, this episode is jam packed with offerings guaranteed to put the “merry” in Merry Christmas!

Featured beers: Ever Grain Missile Toad, The Bruery 2 Turtle Doves (2021,) Virginia Beer’s Evil Santa & Tröegs Mad Elf Grand Cru. Plus: Hot beer is a thing in Colorado and a new listing on Zillow hints that Santa may be moving!
