Corsendonk Christmas AleDark burgundy, raisins, sugarplums & fruitcake. Spicy depth makes for holiday warmth.
Weyerbacher Winter WarmerLush malts warmly meet the tongue and earthy hops hang on for the ride. Winter is cool!
Scaldis NoelSweet dark caramel malt, spices, rum like alcohol. Pears and plums will dance on your tongue.


I definitely recommend the Weyerbacher and the Scaldis Noel. Weyerbacher is quickly challenging Dogfish Head for my favorite American brewery. And the Scaldis Noel isn't syrupy like the regular Scaldis. I'd also add the St. Bernardus Christmas Ale if you can find it.
I'm glad that Rogue's made it on your short list... being from Eugene where it is plentiful. Personally, I think the Christmas Ale is a bit too hoppy, but that's just a preferential thing. I dig their stouts...
