Beer Advent Calendar Wrapup

Today I’m recycling the cans/bottles from my Beer Advent Calendar, but first I wanted to go through them and see if I learned anything. Here are the beers in rough order of how much I enjoyed them, taking into consideration not only deliciousness (of course) but also comparison to expectations. Favorites in the top row, least favorite on the bottom.

Some notes:

  • The Focal Point lager I already bought more of
  • All three New England IPAs are in the top 10, surprising no-one
  • The lagers did better than I expected
  • All the beers (and the cider) on the bottom row disappointed me in some way, mostly for being too sweet
  • The only over-the-top beer I might buy again is the Allagash Day’s End, but I would need to be in the right mood to drink it
  • The sole hefeweizen, and the honey saison, would have done much better in warmer weather
