A Grimbergen at Hopleaf. Also notable was the Pere Noel, from DeRanke. Not an over-the-top spiced Christmas beer, but still spiced enough to put you in the holiday spirit. I forgot to try the local mead from Wild Blossom Winery.
I personally like to drink at Hopleaf before the dinner crowd comes in. So I don’t get in there very often anymore. Before 5 is recommended if you want a seat at the bar, and a bartender’s attention.
