I know it’s a bit early but setting this up so we can all post our beers that are Christmas related.
I’m starting off with the 2024 version of Brew York Dreams Of Brew York. A 6.5% apple and cinnamon sour.
I’m drinking while build Christmas Lego. This is the third Christmas set I’ve built.

It’s a decent enough beer some tart to sweet apple and light spice.
Got this in my fridge, along with Fairytale. Will post when consumed!!
I’ve started on some Christmas beers this week. Belgian are definitely the best IMO. Can’t beat this one.
Next Christmas beer for me is this one

This year it’s Florentine Milk Stout and 4.9%. Decent, and not too sweet.
Also tried Brew York Nightmare Of Brew York 2024 this is Stroopwaffel flavored.

this is 8.5% and has a nice body, slight pastry sweet.

A bit sickly in places but overall quite good.
I tried Anspach & Hobday A Christmas Pale

I’d actually welcome some spiced beers on the bar this Christmas instead of the bland 4% golds (which are often either rebadges or cheap/failed brews) which most UK breweries seem to think are acceptable to claim as Christmas beers.
Twiggy breweries proving that whatever stagnates corrupts.
Nice, it seems that Brew York are really pushing their beer export right now. Here in my local Copenhagen supermarket (Meny) they have 3 different Christmas beers of theirs in the new brew aisles, and for the last month we had a rotating selection of the rest of their beers, I even had to add some new ones here 
Will give those new Christmas ones a go for sure.
The AUD is strong with this one. Still kind of a sticker shock.
What’s the pricing like? Seems to be slightly hugher than UK bottle shops are selling it for but are those cheap supermarket prices by Danish standards?
(I’ve not had a Brew York beer since 2017 and those were a couple that were available at ASDA for a short period.)
Brew York do some of the tastiest VFM BA beers on the market … I always look to pick them up when released.
Meny is more of a “upmarket” supermarket so prices trend higher (especially for imports) The Christmas ones about £5.50 to £6 a can and the standard range from about £4.50 or they do 2 for £8 etc (from any of the standard range). Arriving in London later today so will check our local supermarket selection tomorrow, seems that there has been a decent range last few visits
The selection of British Christmas beers (above 4.75%) in Norway is dismal this year - the only new one I’ve seen is Northern Monk Dark Nord Doppelbock Christmas Beer. And if the alternatives would be sugarbomb “pastry stouts”, you may keep them.
theyre all shite anyway … dont drink them … we don’t … its really not much of a thing over here aside from the once a year brigade who hit the pubs in that one month!
I had this Christmas beer tonight.

Christmas spicy stout
Trying hard to think what my favourite UK Christmas ales are. I’d probably say Harvey’s Christmas & Hook Norton 12 Days.
Wetherspoons are doing 12 Beers of Christmas this year (all cask), looking at the list they seem OK, I’ve had two of them before, so 10 to find if I can be bothered.
