Advent Beer Calendar: Day 24 (Final!): Samichlaus

December 24th, 2005

SamichlausWell, for the final day on the Advent Calendar, it’s Samichlaus, of course! "Samichlaus" means Santa Claus, so I can’t think of a better beer for our final day and for Christmas Eve. I’ve written about it before, so it’s no surprise I think highly of this beer. In general, though, you’ll either love it or hate it.

When I wrote about this last year, the BeerAdvocate score was 88; now it’s dropped a point to 87, though it has a 94% approval rating.

It’s been fun writing the Beer Advent Calendar this month, I hope everyone enjoyed it. If I don’t get back on tomorrow for a bit, have a Merry Christmas!
