"No big deal" you may say, "there are plenty of great beers around." The beer world has changed a lot over the years, and this beer drinker can remember a time when microbrews were few and far between, and Anchor was one of the best. Their Christmas Ale has been a holiday tradition for myself and friends since 1988. It was sometimes spectacular, other times just good.
