Beer Advent

2022

We hope you enjoy the beers we have put together for our 2022 Beer Advent! We have sought out new, limited and seasonal beers to share with you throughout December. We thank you for your support of our local shop and would love for you to tag us on Instagram with your favorites.

We've represented many of the best cans and bottles from our local craft beer scene, alongside some ancient, traditional brews from across the planet, and even included some new and unexpected flavors and styles as well. With an array of IPAs, a smattering of sours, some crisp clean lagers, some more obscure and nerdy lagers, plus all the roasty malty dark beers to keep you cozy this holiday season.

Cheers and Happy Holidays!

Einbecker Winter-Bock

Einbeck, Germany / 7.5% ABV

Haling from one of the world’s oldest breweries, Einecker Winter-Bock is everything you crave on a cold winter’s night.  Historical documents show that this brauhous in Einbeck, Germany has been at it since 1378 and claim to be the originators of the “bock” style of beer. Bocks are stylistically dark lagers that are less hoppy and more malty. However, what you have in your hands right now is a Doppelboch, which quite literally translates to “double bock”. So, you can expect a more amped up, flavorful version and this Winter-Bock does not disappoint. 

Beautifully dark amber in color, this full bodied brew has a big malty flavor with a hint of sweetness. Creamy in texture and bursting with flavors of toasty molasses, caramel and chocolate, this will undoubtably excite your tastebuds. These bold notes also lends itself to be perfectly enjoyed with salty hard cheeses and even sweet treats like cheesecake!  And if you like traditions, you’ll enjoy being part of this one, since bocks have been the chosen bevy at many German Christmas celebrations for centuries!
