Item Description... Christmas beers, also known as Winter Warmers, are a tradition dating back at least 2,000 years, with the ancients making highly intoxicating brews to celebrate winter's Saturnalia. This brewmaking evolved into a holiday celebration when medieval monks, the world's first professional brewers, pulled out their finest ingredients to produce soul-warming styles for the occasion. Today brewers continue the custom, either with centuries-old recipes or newfangled concoctions with spices and herbs, enabling thirsty beer fans to put aside their everyday favorites each winter and deck the halls with the world's most flavorful ales and lagers, brewed especially for the holidays.Beer expert Don Russell taps into holiday cheer with a look at the world's best—unusual, exotic, rich, one-of-a-kind brews—detailing the styles and flavors that will leave beer lovers in a froth. From Smuttynose Winter Ale to Santa's Butt to Troegs Mad Elf to Left Hand XXXmas, there's a beer for everyone, even a Hanukkah beer, He'Brew Jewbelation. Including funny tales and trivia behind the beers, homebrew recipes and food recipes with Christmas beer as an ingredient, and instructions for building and cellaring your own vintage holiday brews so you can enjoy Christmas 365 days a year, Christmas Beer will put even the most curmudgeonly beer drinker in the holiday spirit. Cheers!

 | Good book that could use a few more recipes Dec 23, 2009 |
| Good book portraying many of the both traditional and non-traditional holiday beers from around the world. Could use a few more recipes for brewing clones or types of holiday beer. Overall, an enjoyable read for any beer enthusiast. | | |  | A book about Christmas Beer --- Awesome! Oct 9, 2009 |
There is no better time of year than Christmas because of all the wonderful beer that becomes available. The book reviews the top 50 best beers and then includes reviews of a number of other Christmas/Winter beers as well.
The book had opportunities to dig more indepth on the different beers and be more descriptive -- but, I'm hard-pressed to criticize any book devoted to Christmas beer.
If you love this type of beer and look forward to this season, I highly recommend this book -- it is a fun read! | | |  | Reviews but no recipes Sep 23, 2009 |
| I purchased this book thinking it had the beer recipe as well as the review, it contains reviews only. Nice little book but not what I was looking for. | | |  | Buy two. One for yourself and a beer buddy. Aug 24, 2009 |
| This is a great beer book! It's compact, filled with lots of facts and lists, and includes pictures of the bottles (so many great labels!). I love the book and am going to buy a copy for my brother (my home brew partner). Holiday beers are my favorite and this book gives me a list of new beers to find. | | |  | HSHILL Feb 21, 2009 |
