There's a local holiday beer for your Christmas, Hanukkah or Kwanzaa celebrations this month.

What happened: The three of us split up and poured six different holiday beers into separate numbered cups to keep them unknown. We scored each beer on a 1 to 5 scale based on deliciousness, holiday flavor and drinkability, wrote down our commentary, then added up the scores for a final ranking.
