So last night I went to my best friend’s house for her annual “Twas the night before Thanksgiving” party. It twas a blast and had some great beers.
There were the standard Harpoon Brewery and Magic Hat beers. Then we had a few specialty beers like the new Corsendonk Christmas Ale – which to me got an A+. It is such a wonderful full body taste of a Belgium dark with just a hint of spices. Traditional Christmas beers are heavily spiced and over roasted malty. This was so not the case.
There was also plenty of Affligem Noel beer. To me it tasted a bit like a fruit cake – in the good way. Again not too spicy.
The host Doug created (at least it was new to me) a warm apple pie beer. It was a combo of a hard apple cider (I can’t recall what variety) and a Harpoon Dark.
All in all it was a great event with great beers
