In San Diego, we're not known for our partridges or pears but we can all relate to those noisy parrots and their relentless "caroling." Parrot in a Pear Tree is a robust Baltic Porter brewed especially for the Holidays. Aged two months in San Pasqual Tawny Port barrels, the resulting brew isn't for the birds. This winter warmer boasts a complex bouquet of dark fruits, espresso and chocolate, with hints of oak in its warming finish. Raise a glass to 2010 or save a bottle as this limited release will age with the best of them.

    Recommended by Dan the Beer Man at Manor Market. Pours a dark brown almost black. The flavor is full of molasses, some fruity characteristics, light spicing and chocolate. The sweet port flavor is present, but not overbearing; it is merely a background note as opposed to a prominent flavor. All of these different elements blend nicely, and there is really no hop presence in the aroma or in the flavor. Finish clean, goes down sooooo smoothly.
