First off, Merry Christmas everyone!
For this week's installment, instead of reviewing a couple of beers, the main reviewers (myself, Norm Miller, and Carter Adler) wanted to share our list of top beers in a range of categories. These are the brews we hope to find in our presents today.
Before we begin, Carter wanted to make a brief statement:
I'd like to make a special shout out to the recently defunct (closed this summer) Indigo Imp, which did small-batch open fermentation in shallow tanks (for more exposure) in Cleveland. The brewery in general, and their Blonde Bombshell in particular, would have been in my top five if they were still around.
