Product Story

This holiday Ale always seems to run dry before Santa makes his rounds so be sure to get your Great Lakes Brewing Christmas Ale fast. If you are not fortunate enough to live in one of the brewery’s nine states of distribution, find a friend that is and have them send you some. Gift-wrapping and a bow are optional.

Brand Story

Established in 1988 by brothers Patrick and Daniel Conway, Great Lakes Brewing Company (GLB) became the first microbrewery in the state of Ohio and today remains one of Ohio's most award-winning and trusted brewers.

Tasting Note

Deep amber, reddish color with a thick and persistent head. The nose is dense with rich, sweet malt with accents of brown baking spices, ginger, cardamom, and pinecone. The palate is in full agreement being rich while never cloying. A harmonious brew with great length and balance. Rich and mildly spicy with warming malt notes and just enough hops to add a crisp edge.
