Black Christmas is a...Christmas Dark Ale. Not a Cascadian Dark Ale, as we would assume. Well, yes it is, but no, it’s not. Christmas is the theme here people!

Right away, the label of this Red Racer Southern Cross Kiwi Kettle Sour made me think of the year I spent in Australia. On Christmas day it was nearly 40°C outside, with the cold, snowy winter back home just a dream.

And the draw is: Red Racer Old School Lager. My first thought on this one was “Meh, Lager”. But if Steel & Oak has taught me anything, it’s that Lager doesn’t necessarily have to be a boring style. So I gave this one the benefit of the doubt, and I’m actually glad I did, because it’s not all that bad.

And the draw is: Parallel 49 Mr. Needles Fir Pale Ale. We have our first repeat from last year’s Craft Crossing advent calendar. That’s pretty impressive, to be honest, and is a great way of pointing out the great diversity we’re seeing in the box this year. Especially compared to year 1.
