Just before the holiday season, the fresh crop of hops are harvested available to the brewer. To celebrate the new harvest we brewed a holiday ale with an enormous kettle addition of freshly harvested American hops. This robust red ale has been dry hopped as well to finish a thoroughly intense hop presence form the initial burst of aroma through the lingering bitter finish. Hop lovers will enjoy this special brew available only during the holiday season.

This beer really needs to let the buyer know what style of beer they are buying. It says Merry Maker on the outside with a brief description of the hops. It's a great beer but the name Merry Maker doesn't strike me as a name for an IPA, espcially one during the holidays. I was thinking this might be a ESA or maybe a scotch, but it's an IPA much in the same vein as SN Celebration. An aroma of a typical WC pine/citrus hop attack with some oxidation creeping in. No malts really to notice. The beer tasted good enough. Citrus hops mostly dominate the flavor with a interesting spicy hop jumping in there. Like in the nose, the malts take a back seat with this beer so to say it's a bit unbalanced would be fair I think. Still, a nice beer.

Another nice winter brew. Seems like im finally finding the good ones after the holidays. Pour is nice and carbonated. Leaves a nice head. Appearance is dark brown. Mouthfeel is smooth. Slightly bitter but nothing to frown about. Flavor is full of hops and perfect for the holidays.

Pale red color, medium head, with a hoppy aroma. Slightly roasted malts, aggressively hopped. Hoppy and bitter, yet malty with some sweetness. Good flavor. Nice balance of hops to malts. Finish is clean and crisp. Aftertaste is bitter, with some hoppyness.
