Christmas Pudding Porter
XhAle Brew Co.
Calgary, AB
6.2% ABV
ย 
It wasnโ€™t Christmas without Aunty Reneโ€™s homemade Christmas pudding, a recipe passed down over 100yrs that filled hearts and bellies.
ย 
The week before Aunty Rene passed from breast cancer at the grand age of 96, she was baking so the family wouldnโ€™t be without. This beer is a tribute to the love she put into each one.
ย 
Using a complex grain bill, graham crackers, English yeast, and a subtle blend of Christmas baking spices, this Porter is a unique experience of dark dried fruit, light spices, sweet, toasty breadiness; and is balanced, dry and perfectly robust to pair with every Yule celebration.
ย 
XhAle donates partial proceeds to @albertacancer for Breast Cancer Awareness. ๐ŸŽ€

Cranchberry Sour
Annex Ale Project
Calgary, AB
5.2% ABV
ย 
Inspired by 2018โ€™s All Innocence, but designed to give you less trouble the next day, Little Trouble Cranchberry Sour has all the flavour with way less mischief. Cranchberry is a made-up name for our brewer’s blend of cherry, raspberry, and cranberry. One turn on the kettle makes this kettle sour tart but balanced, even without lactose.
