Even though I have been in Florida for well over five years now, December and the Christmas season continues to sneak up on me. Without the snow that I was used to when growing up in New York the only way I know it is winter is when the Christmas music hits the airwaves. Then the frantic search for any required gifts begins since I am only left with a short time before I would have to ship anything up north.
It is also the season for me to be thinking of winter seasonals, so that is where the idea for beer news started today. Below are just a couple stories to assist you when shopping for your friends or family and a few others that I found interesting.
- Some winter beer favorites from a tasting panel in Baltimore.
- A list of gifts for the beer lovers in your life.
- Different approaches to starting (and maintaining success with) your own brewery. Certainly of personal interest to me!
- Knowing what breweries the “Big 2” control. There were a few that caught me by surprise.

I will make sure to remind you next July that Christmas is coming. I want you to have more than enough time to pick out my presents!!!
