another Christmas Ale

I can't get enough of these things. They have so much flavor and so much alcohol. You get a buzz after one. This is Bush de Noel. I haven't tried Bush's regular offering, but it appears to be a cheaper blond beer here. Not to knock them, I haven't tried it yet.

As for the xmas version, it's great. Lots of malt, and a maple syrup smell/taste. I am going to have to pick up a bunch before it goes. Fisher's is still my #1 though.

change of direction

i've decided i don't enjoy writing that much, so i'm going to take this festival crowd to the next level. i hope you enjoy my jazz freestyle. On the left we have a Veltens lager from Germany which I enjoyed at the Brauhaus in a hotel in Abu Dhabi. Pretty good bar, six German beers on tap. Next is a Kronenbourg at PJ O'Reilley's in Abu Dhabi. Also in a hotel, which is where all the bars are located. It was okay as was the bar, more of a high school hangout. On the right is a Gordon's Bierre de Noel which was very similar to the Fischer's Christmas beer that I had in Strasbourg. This was delicious, glad I picked up a four pack.
