Breckenridge Distillery the highly awarded spirits brand and World’s Best Blended Whiskey offers premium spirits for the holiday season:
o Breckenridge Bourbon Whiskey: Breckenridge Bourbon Whiskey is one of the most awarded craft bourbons in the U.S. This high-rye Bourbon Whiskey is aged for a minimum of three years, in charred, new American oak barrels, and blended to reveal the unique qualities of the Bourbon Whiskey. It offers a deep, honey-amber hue with pronounced aromas of butterscotch, candied orange, and apple; dry cacao and brown sugar envelop the tongue as the spirit lingers with notes of vanilla and white pepper.
o Breckenridge High Proof: Named World’s Best Blended Whiskey at the World Whiskies Award, this award-winning Whiskey is a perfectly blended Bourbon, but with a twist, bottled at a gripping 105 proof, delivering a masterful combination of rich, dark caramel and toasted almonds, along with burnt baker’s chocolate and dried orange peel, with a lingering finish of vanilla and spice.
o Breckenridge PX Sherry Cask Finish: a 3-time Best American Blended winner at the World Whiskies Awards and a Double Gold Winner at the San Francisco World Spirits Awards, this PX Sherry Cask Finish is a unique blend of flavors from the barrels of luscious, syrupy dessert wine from the Andalusia province of Spain, that complements the sweet oak and vanilla character of Breckenridge’s world-renowned rich, spicy, Bourbon Whiskey; it gracefully emerges from the wine’s ripe fruity vessels with complex layers of fig compote, orange marmalade, and licorice.
For the True Craft Beer Fans
SweetWater Brewing Company known for its iconic 420 Pale Ale and hoppy IPAs introduces new holiday seasonal brews:

o Festive Ale: A cheerfully spiced Winter Warmer with big, complex flavors. Loaded with Centennial and Golding Hops and capped with a dose of cinnamon and ground mace, Festive Ale is a high-octane brew that keeps drinkers warm and toasty through the winter.
Montauk Brewing Company captures the unique spirit of Montauk in their premium craft brews:
o Driftwood Ale: This well-balanced English Pale Ale is known for its dark copper color and easy drinkability. Victory malts give this beer terrific toasty, nutty, and biscuity flavors at 6% ABV.
o Cold Day IPA: With slight haze and crisp, juicy notes, Cold Day IPA warms your spirit and reminds you that the freezing days are still beautiful ones.
Breckenridge Brewery the original ski town brewery offers big seasonal flavors:
o Christmas Ale: One of the larger seasonal beers in the nation and sold nationwide., Breck Brew’s Christmas Ale is a malty, full-bodied winter warmer with extra flavor and strength. This festive brew features an abundance of carefully roasted malts, creating notes of caramel and chocolate, while Chinook and Mt. Hood hops contribute a spicy quality for balance and a clean finish.

Striking deep red, this strong specialty brew makes a coveted holiday gift for beer and whiskey lovers.
o Vanilla Porter: A year-round beer but an all-time fan favorite during the holiday season, featuring aromas of vanilla and toasted grain sets the stage for mellow flavors of vanilla and dark roasted malts in this popular porter.
10 Barrel winner of the Great American Beer Festival awards for best American Sour Ale, Field Beer, and German Sour Ale introduces amplified HopBurst IPAs for the holidays:
o 10 Barrel’s HopBurst IPA Family:
o Apocalypse HopBurst West Coast IPA: Taking their West Coast IPA, 10 Barrel loaded up the hops for massive flavor and enhanced aromatics, locking in notes of pine and citrus for a bright golden appearance and medium body, making this a flagship staple of the HopBurst lineup. It’s impossible to miss this recipe's herbal, grapefruit, and stone fruit aromas.
o All Ways Down HopBurst Double IPA: A double IPA bursting with hops! This recipe began as a specialty brew with friends from Rome Snowboards, inspired by the many Double IPAs found in their home state of Vermont. A fan-favorite from the start, this recipe brings citrus, cannabis and pine flavors with sweet aromas of pineapple and mango. Watch out for that higher ABV, this Double packs a punch.
o Cloud Mentality HopBurst Hazy IPA: Tossing a truckload of hops into their Hazy IPA at the end of its brewing process, Cloud Mentality brings an explosion of flavor and aromatics. This technique traps all the juicy, tropical notes while maintaining a balanced taste and keeping the bitterness in check for a final result of a sweet stone fruit finish and aromas of citrus and tropical fruit.
Blue Point Brewing known for its award-winning Amber Lagers offers full flavor this holiday season:
o Toasted Lager: Blue Point’s original Long Island Lager is the first beer they’ve ever brewed. Smooth, balanced, and classic, Toasted Lager enjoys a 25-year heritage as a staple in the New York craft beer scene, often the first beer many Long Islanders ever drink. Extremely crushable and easy to love. Its awards include a World Beer Cup Gold medal, GABF (Great American Beer Festival) awards, and more.
o Winter Warmer: A seasonal Winter Ale full of Blue Point’s favorite winter spices – vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Brewed to a cozy 6.4% ABV, Winter Warmer features notes of chocolate, root beer, gingerbread, toasted marshmallows, hints of sweet dark fruit, and a kick of classic holiday spice.
Widmer Brothers, the 2023 Large Size Brewery of the Year according to Best of Craft Beer Awards offers a seasonal variety of beers including:
o Brrr Hoppy Red: A legendary winter seasonal and silver medalist at the Great International Beer and Cider Competition, this Northwest-Style Red ale features caramel and dark chocolate malts bringing out the indulgent sweet flavor that balances wonderfully with its smooth bitterness.
o Widmer Hefe: With a current total award count of 33, Widmer’s Hefe features floral citrus notes to the naturally cloudy body and refreshing finish. Its golden yet cloudy brew has become an international craft brewing staple and forever known as America’s Original Hefeweizen.
o Widmer Imperial Hefe: Unmatched, this Imperial Wheat lords over ales with robust wheat flavors, joining houses with Citra, Vista and Idaho-7 hops, all while remaining true to its wheat sovereignty by tasting smooth, balanced, and bright.
Redhook, the award-winning brewer of Big Ballard Imperial IPAs offers new flavors for the holidays:
o Big Ballard Imperial IPA: The OG of the family, Big Ballard Imperial IPA is a tribute to Redhook’s original stomping grounds. Living up to its name with a bold hop profile featuring a deep golden body and crisp finish.
o Hazy Big Ballard Imperial IPA: Bold and juicy, with citrus and tropical flavors, a soft body, and lingering hops on the finish. Whatever you’re building, Hazy Big Ballard is the perfect way to cap off a long day and give you the reward you have earned.
o Tropical Big Ballard Juicy IPA: A big beer with big IPA flavors to live up to the name but with a softer touch. Brewed with mouthwatering natural Orange, Pineapple, Starfruit and Coconut, this IPA puts you at ease with every sip, as if you were on a beach in a tropical destination.
Shock Top continues to impress with its coveted Belgian-style wheat ale.
o Belgian White: This spiced Belgian-style wheat ale is the pinnacle of refreshment brewed with real orange, lemon and lime peels for a smooth, citrusy finish. The beer that is always down to chill - and be chilled.

Square Mile: the 6-time award-winning original hard cider offers new holiday essentials:

o Imperial Blackberry Pie: There’s nothing like the sweet taste of baked blackberries in every sip of this Imperial Blackberry Pie.

CRAFTED FOR THE PEOPLE: SWEETWATER'S NEW 'HALF-A-GUMMIE' IPA MEETS CONSUMER DEMAND FOR FRUITY, EASY-DRINKING BEERS
From its Original Gummies Double IPA Line, SweetWater Introduces Half-a-Gummie IPA Featuring a Lower ABV, Offering Bold Fruit Flavors
ATLANTA — Nov. 16, 2023 — SweetWater Brewing Company (“SweetWater Brewing” or “SweetWater”), the largest craft brewer in the Southeast and a subsidiary of Tilray Brands, Inc. (“Tilray” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: TLRY and TSX: TLRY), announced today the latest innovation in its acclaimed IPA series – ‘Half-A-Gummie’ IPA. This new line of India Pale Ales, bursting with fruit-forward flavors, is a twist on the wildly successful SweetWater Gummies Double IPA – which launched earlier this year, now reimagined with a more session-friendly alcohol content. Both the original Gummies IIPA and the innovative Half-A-Gummie are now ready to tantalize taste buds nationwide on draft.
Building on the trailblazing success of the SweetWater Gummies line, 'Half-A-Gummie' IPA emerges as a natural evolution in SweetWater's pursuit of innovation and excellence in craft brewing. The SweetWater Gummies series launched as a testament to the brewery's commitment to flavor-forward and high-ABV ales, set a new benchmark in the Double IPA category. These ales, notably the Tropical IIPA and Fruit Punch IIPA with a potent 9.5% ABV, captured the essence of summer with their haze, juiciness, and bold, fruity flavors.
‘Half-A-Gummie’ retains the essence of the Gummies series—its captivating fruit flavors and aromatic appeal—while presenting a lower alcohol-by-volume content as an alternative option for consumers; The launch series of Half-A-Gummie includes the same two great varieties from the original series: Tropical IPA, and Fruit Punch IPA, each boasting a 5.5% alcohol-by-volume. These new brews are a masterful blend of real fruit juice with the luscious flavors of strawberry, pineapple, orange, and cherry, culminating in a uniquely smooth, incredibly flavorful, and drinkable IPA experience.
This new line is a testament to SweetWater's agility in adapting to consumer preferences, offering a lower-ABV IPA that still embodies the brewery's signature blend of bold flavors and easy drinkability. This strategic move aligns with a market report[1] predicting a 6 percent CAGR growth in the fruit beer market over the next decade, driven by a growing preference for beers that offer both refreshing taste and a gentler alcohol presence, much like 'Half-A-Gummie'.
“Our Gummies Double IPA has been a huge hit with consumers who crave fruit-forward, high-ABV beers. We’ve also discovered a strong demand, especially with our on-premise partners, for beers with a similar flavor profile and less alcohol. We’re excited to offer drinkers the choice to enjoy an easy-drinking IPA with low bitterness and delicious fruit flavors while tapping into a lower ABV option,” said Ty Gilmore, President of U.S. Beers for Tilray Beer.
Discover the revolution in IPA – Half-A-Gummie is here to redefine expectations and excite palates. To learn more about SweetWater’s latest brews fans can visit SweetWater’s website at: www.sweetwaterbrew.com/find-sweetwater.
