Holiday Beer Report: Anderson Valley Winter Solstice

##[Winter Solstice Seasonal Ale][1]

Anderson Valley 6.9% N/A

Anderson Valley Winter SolsticeAnderson Valley makes some really good beers. Even better is the fact that you can usually get some at Trader Joe’s at a reasonable price. Winter Solstice is a really decent ale. It’s smooth, full bodied and flavorful. Last year I seem to remember it having a distinct vanilla finish which I didn’t taste so much in this year’s batch (which, to me, is a good thing). It’s relatively low in ABV so don’t be afraid to have a couple on a crisp, winter night.

While we’re talking about Anderson Valley, I must mention their Hop Ottin’ IPA. It’s a really good India Pale Ale with a balanced flavor to hop ratio and great floral scent. Hit up Trader Joe’s tonight and pick some up. Good stuff!
