The specialized holiday pack features the brand new Fritz’s Sticky Bun Stout, as well as all three Wasteland Warriors – Candy Cane, Blueberry Maple French Toast and Sugar Cookie.

Finish sweet with the vanilla and cinnamon flavors in Wood Ape Monster Cookie.

Free Will Brewing Company in Perkasie & Peddler’s Village: Peel & Petal and unwind with soothing chamomile, orange and coriander. Crisp and delicate with floral spiced aromas, it is the perfect brew to help you relax through the holidays.

Geronimo Brewing in Doylestown: Named after the venerable B-52 bomber, the B.U.F.F. Stout recipe was taken and added with lactose to create a big, rich and powerful yet smooth stout. A heaping of chocolate and coffee malt creates a nice, deep rich flavor to savor. Consider drinking in a wingback chair while wearing your smoking jacket.

Great Barn Farm to Glass Tap Room in New Hope: Get your gears loose and drink Tractor Juice Milk Stout (6.4% ABV). It’s available in four-packs. Tractor Juice doesn’t apologize for beating up your tongue with dark chocolate, caramel and coffee flavors. Available on tap at Great Barn, online for preorders and from the Kintnersville Farm to pick up.

Iron Hill Brewery in Newtown: Forget gifting chocolates, give your loved ones The Pig Iron Porter. It’s the classic darkness and fullness you love, but mixed with chocolate notes at 6.2%.

Mad Princes Brewing Co. in Doylestown: Apparently, it’s not that weird to taste the snow, as long as it’s the Snow Eater beer. It was built to showcase the best Pennsylvania hops.

Moss Mill Brewing Co. in Huntingdon Valley: It doesn’t get any more indulgent than the Raspberry Mocha Latte Stout. Brewed with lactose, raspberries, cocoa nibs, coffee and vanilla beans, it’ll send your taste buds for a whirl.

Naked Brewing Co. in Huntingdon Valley and Bristol: Flavors found only in folklore of fresh cut holiday pine boughs, juicy, freshly peeled clementines and delightfully sticky resinous Concolor fir sap in Krampus Cat (6.6% ABV). The addition of flaked oats gives a fluffy, south mouthfeel.

Neshaminy Creek Brewing Co. in Croydon and New Hope: Mudbank Milkstout is brewed with chocolate flavors and coconut cream.

Newtown Brewing Co. in Newtown: A Dark Knight reference You Merely Adopted the Dark, I Was Born In It made its very appropriate release on Black Friday. The 10.1% chocolate peanut butter Russian Imperial Stout is said to be as dark as the city of Gotham.

Odd Logic Brewing Company in Bristol: Cider season does not have to end in November, especially if you stay true to winter hues. Sir Charles Cranberry Cider is all that and more at an intriguing 6.5%.

Red Lion Brewery in Quakertown: They say you spend a good part of your life dreaming, even when you are awake. Lucid Cream embodies that suggestion as it brings to life the nostalgic flavor of ginger cream that will leave you saying “pinch me.”

Second Sin Brewing Company in Bristol: Forget about grandma’s recipe, it’s SUPER Cobberlin Time. This mixed berry cobbler-style sour ale is made with lactose, cinnamon, vanilla, blueberry, raspberry and blackberry. It’s all your favorite cobblers, but taken to the next level.

The Proper Brewing Co. in Quakertown: Since Santa is probably sick of the standard milk and cookies, step up your game and leave him a glass of Franklin’s Cookies with Vanilla Creme Brulee. The beer is brewed with chocolate milk, roasted barley, Oreo and vanilla creme brulee coffee.

Tilt’em Back Brewing Company in Chalfont: Tilt’em Back’s Russian Imperial anniversary beer is a dessert beer with a harmonious blend of coffee, chocolate, vanilla beans and cinnamon sticks.

Tower Hill Brewery in Chalfont: Everyone gets a little bitter during the holidays, so why not have a beer to match the attitude. The Special Bitter is a traditional English pub ale with a smooth caramel flavor balanced with Noble hops.

Two Rivers Brewing Co. in Quakertown: In 2019, the Bangor Slate Baltic Porter was awarded the bronze medal at the Great American Beer Festival and the gold medal at the World Beer Cup. The beer’s fitting title is inspired by the slate mined just north of Easton in Banger, Pennsylvania, which was regarded as the best roofing in the world due to its exceptional density.

Vault Brewing Co. in Yardley: Warn up at the bonfire with the Fat Tail Peanut Butter S’mores Stout. As you sip on this 8.5% stout, you’ll be greeted with notes of chocolate mousse, butter, marshmallow fluff and everyone’s favorite, s’mores.

Warwick Farm Brewing in Jamison: Start the day off right with this coffee-like beer. Sugar Shack is made with a classic coffee roast and aged with lots of maple syrup for the ultimate morning pick me up.
