A Really Good New Seasonal Beer (for me)
« Reply #-1 on: November 27, 2013, 10:13:42 PM »
I always hate to see Fall end, but there is good in all seasons. Fall is by far my favorite season, the colors, the new and heartier bounties in the food world, and last but not least the Fall seasonals in the beer and ales from the micro-breweries.
Tried a new one tonight, from Sierra Nevada, "Celebration"fresh hop ale. Made from the first fresh hop harvest of the season. It's an excellent IPA.  Sparky you will like this, I'm certain on this one!

Have a happy and safe holiday all!

I think it has a similar taste to Fat Tire but a bit lighter in texture.  8)

Every year Celebration comes out I get a case. That is one awesome beer. You have to be a hop head to like it though.

Not a big IPA fan but I do love Sierra Nevada Pale Ale and Alaskan Brewing Company Amber  :)

I only live about 3 hours South of the Sierra Nevada Brewery and I need to take a tour and get a growler to add to my collection.  So far I have visited 32 Craft Breweries ... tour (if possible), taste their products, and take home a growler of my favorite to enjoy.



This is my favorite growler to date.  Hand blown in Germany.  It's the only growler in my collection that hasn't had any beer in it.  It was too pretty.  I did however enjoy the beer and ales at Triple 7 in Las Vegas.

I like Sierra too. I didn't know they made seasonal brews. I'm a fan of Sam Adams. I like just about anything they put out. I have some White Christmas at home, going to try one this weekend.

Smoken I too like Sam Adams except their flagship beer Boston Lager. It fills me up like Michelob used to. My favorites, I love Fall and Winter seasonals from everyone.

If you like craft beer from nano breweries, you may like this: relicbeer.com. This is my son's company. He started this about two years ago after working in IT for many years.
