About This Beer
Southern Grist brewed this crispy boi with freshly-picked spruce tips, juniper needles, and juniper berries for a whole Christmas tree’s worth of flavor. The verdant notes gorgeously marry with the bready base for a swig that might have you singing “O Tannenbier, O Tannenbier.”
Tasting Notes
Woody resin and fresh-baked biscuity nuances brim out of every holiday-worthy drop. Bright, tangy berry notes adorn the sip like vibrant ornaments before a malty finish kissed with gin-like tones.

Spruce tip beer doesn’t actually taste like drinking a Christmas tree – it’s pretty darn good. And this is an excellent version, balanced and restrained but still unique. Nice stuff.

There are light notes of spruce up front, but wish it was more noticeable. Does have a nice, crisp finish though. Nice seasonal offering.
