Christmas is a special time. People are just a little bit nicer. Food tastes a little better. To mark this hallowed season, each year brewers around the world create a special breed of brew – Christmas beers. Whether ale, doppelbock or stout these brews tend to be warming draughts, rich with spice and heady with deep flavors. They’re made for sipping by the fire with friends and family rather than shotgunning, guzzling, or even quaffing at tailgates and in man caves.
Brewing a special beer for Christmas started hundreds of years ago, before there ever was Christmas as we know it. Most accounts seem to agree that in Scandinavian countries they would start brewing stronger and heavier beers in preparation for a mid-December festival to celebrate Jolner (a Norse god). These beers were known as Julöl. When the tradition was brought over to England, the pronunciation changed and became Yule Ale.
