Yes… Santa is Dead… This year's beer is almost completely different from last year. It is a big white ale brewed and infused with a variety of spices. At 8.5% ABV and relatively dry the light spice blend including nutmeg, hazelnut, black cardamom, cinnamon, and bitter orange peel comes through nicely but is not over powering. We apply the same principles we do every year with this beer. Brew something different from the year before that is lightly spiced to complement the grain bill. Brewed with pilsner malts and white wheat the beer is golden in color with a slight haze. Good news is even though Santa is no longer with us, we generally get something for the holidays anyway…
