This is our special ale from the brewers at Anchor. It is sold only from early November to mid-January. The Ale’s recipe is different every year, but the intent with which we offer it remains the same: joy and celebration of the newness of life. Since ancient times, trees have symbolized the winter solstice when the earth, with its seasons appears born anew.

Bottle from Connolly's Wine Merchants entitled '2021 Merry Christmas Happy New Year'. Pours quite thick black with moderate beige head. Aroma of malt, cinnamon, dark fruits, nutmeg. Taste of malts, molasses, Christmas spice, dark fruit, some roast in the finish with a slight coffee and herbal bitterness. Good beer although could have been even better. I just feel it might be missing something to bring it all together.

To the Jewish people all over the world, I hope this next year is a lot less stressful, a lot more peaceful and filled with a lot more delicious things to drink and eat. Happy new year.
