For each bottle sold, Perch will donate $1 directly to the Salvation Army, to help those in need this season. All of those bottles will also be recycled into a “beer Christmas tree,” which will slowly take shape throughout the month. Check out the list and descriptions of the Noel brews below, and head over to do your part in tree-building and Salvation Army supporting – Santa’s watching!

Thursday, December 8: Great Divide Hibernation (Colorado)
English-style Old Ale. Hibernation Ale is Colorado’s original strong ale -- it has been Great Divide’s winter seasonal each year since 1995. Hibernation’s massive flavors are so intense that it requires over three months of aging each year. This lengthy aging process gives Hibernation its revered malty richness, complex hop profile and hearty warming character, which is perfect right out of the bottle or cellared for longer periods of time (8.7% ABV; 12oz; $6).

Friday, December 9: Breckenridge Christmas Ale (Colorado)
The chill of a Colorado high-country winter calls for a beer with extra flavor and strength. Here it is. At over 7% alcohol, with a sturdy texture and rich flavors of caramel and chocolate, our holiday seasonal is the fermented equivalent of a good fire. The ultimate winter warmer (7.4% ABV; 12oz; $4.50).

Saturday, December 10: Southern Tier Old Man Winter (New York)
With the onset of winter, the brewer’s mind turns to providing warmth. For a winter seasonal, Southern Tier offers Old Man Winter Ale, a rich and complex amalgam of hops and barley that will put the feeling back in your toes and lift your spirits above the snow. Old Man Winter throws a deep and inviting hue with a thickness that clings to the glass and the warmth of an open flame. Because of its high alcohol content, Old Man Winter is a heady brew that encourages sipping and pondering its essential richness (7.2% ABV; 12oz; $4).

Wednesday, December 14: Delirium Noel (Belgium)
Delirium Noel Seasonal Ale- A little pink elephant told me that Santa likes a glass of this way better than milk and cookies. Better not disappoint him!
