Pisgah Mole
Local chocolate + spices + chilies + British Biscuits = win
Always a sucker for a chili beer, but was curiously picking rando locals & grabbed up my fist Pisgah beer in years. Prickly but not too spicy, plus obviously good chocolate.
Cheers.

Saw my first ‘Christmas Special’ of the season yesterday, cask Kris Kringle from Backyard Brewery in Walsall - I didn’t have it, bah humbug! Settled for a pint of what the brewery called a Baltic Porter (Wantsum Black Pig) instead. Often wonder if these seasonal specials are one-offs or another beer relabelled to cash in, or another beer with some cinammon added

“Christmas beers have been around for a while, reaching as far back as pre-Christian Scandinavia when Vikings made Jul or Yule to commemorate Norse gods and celebrate the winter solstice.”

Closest I got to a holiday without representing and actual holiday. This is one of the best breweries in MD and a better adjunct stout.

Okay, new add from one of MDs bigger breweries.
I never was a fan of spiced holiday beer but this one is good for a one and done. Spices are mild, beer is fairly dry. Surprisingly I think some of the base brown ale comes through!
