Beer Sighting: Holiday Seasonals


We are well into the time that the holiday seasonals will be appearing.

I found 3 at Chestnut Street Cafe:
The St. Nikolaus Bock (Penn Brewing), Celebration Ale (Sierra Nevada), and Christmas Ale (Great Lakes) are all pouring.

I have it on good authority that as of this post, Our Gang's is putting on Erie Brewing's Ol' Red Cease and Desist Wee Heavy Scottish Ale. Georgia's City Lights also put this on tap last week. It's quite strong at 10.1% ABV, so be careful as to not shoot your eye out.

First American Brewery to Produce a Lager

Believe it or not, the Iron City Brewing Company was the first Amercian Brewery to brew a lager. I know, it's hard for me to believe it too. They are also the second oldest brewery in the United States. IC features nine beers. According to their website, they are the inventors of aluminum beer bottles.

I also found this site that list for Pennsylvania Brewpubs and Microbreweries:

This is a pretty cool site.

Santa’s Private Reserve

With the Holidays right around the corner, why not start sampling the Christmas Brews. This week's brewery feature takes us to Newport, Oregon. Home to the Rogue Brewery. They offer a Holiday beer called Santa's Private Reserve. It is a lot like their Saint Rogue Red but has double the hops. If you're not in the mood for something seasonal don't fear, Rogue most likely has something you will enjoy. They offer a Chipolte Ale, Chocolate Stout and many more. Check out their site.
