Looking for a crowd-pleasing beer for yuletide enjoyment? This deep red beer with floral honey and ginger spice finishes with a bit of a brown-sugar caramel flavor. It’s the perfect partner for all those Christmas cookies you’ll be ingesting.

Dark enough to feel wintry, but light enough not to offend those who don’t think they like dark beer, the brew is a perfect peacekeeper for those family gatherings when the last thing you need is something else to argue about.
