What is a Christmas beer?

Christmas beer is not an isolated beer style, in fact any beer can be a Christmas beer. There are therefore no characteristics that this specialty beer must meet. The name of abbey beer points to the origin of the beer, but this is slightly different with Christmas beer. Christmas beer only refers to the period in which we drink this beer. The beer is specially brewed for Christmas and the end of the year, every brewer brews his own version. And it's a good thing they do, because let's be honest: Christmas isn't complete without a Belgian Christmas beer!

When they hear the term Christmas beer, many people immediately think of a dark and strong beer. But this is not necessary, there are also many blonde Christmas beers. Look at Schuppenboer winter but once.

Christmas beer does not have specific characteristics, but there are of course flavors that we often see. These beers usually have a slightly higher alcohol percentage (8-10%), which provides more alcohol heat. And yes, that is wonderful during cold days. We also see many flavors that we can appreciate during the winter. Christmas beers often have a lot of spiciness from cinnamon, licorice or cloves. We also often taste caramel notes and a lot of malt. Mainly warmer flavors that fit perfectly with winter.

Difference between winter beer and Christmas beer?

Christmas beers are often also called winter beers or end-of-year beers, so the same thing is meant. These are both terms where the beer does not have to meet certain taste characteristics, but it is about the moment of drinking. These beers are usually mentioned in the same breath as Christmas and winter beers.

Because Christmas beer does not have to meet certain characteristics, you sometimes see that the beer is drunk all year round. A beer is then brewed exclusively for Christmas, but it is so popular that the beer ends up in the standard range.
