Cant go wrong with a Stella Artois. Goes great with a mild stick.

looking for reviews:

Abita Christmas Ale
Anchor Steam Holiday Ale
Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale

we carry these but would like to get an idea first.

Thirsty Dog 12 Dogs of Christmas...very nice with just enuff honey/spices.
Great Lakes Christmas Ale...IMO too much cinnamon and has "tinny after taste"

The only one I can speak to is SN Celebration. Don't let the label fool you it is not a Christmas beer but instead an IPA, a very tasty IPA, but if you are looking for a Christmas/Winter Warmer style ale it can be deceiving.

Just finished a 6 of the SN--it's not really in the Christmas/Spiced ale category. It's a rich, vey balanced & drinkable IPA. After all these years I'm still partial to Cascades hops, so I like the piney, citrusy aroma of this beer. Probably one of my favorite SN's right now, even better than Torpedo.

Firestone DBA tonight

Rogue Santa and Port Santa something as well...I forgot about an hour ago

The Rogue tasted like a good Rogue, that Port was very dark and sweet...I guess I should gather myself for a moment here...

Ive been on a Tecate Kick here as of late for some reason.. It seems to fit the taste with most all the cigars ive smoked.

But the Best Beer to go with an Olvia G has got to be a local Oklahoma Beer, Mustang Brewing Company's - Washita Wheat Oh My do those 2 go together great!
