                | Happy New Year's Eve! For a good inexpensive champagne, try Domaine St. Michelle. But if you can get it, nothing beats the Pugliese Sparkling Merlot, for New Year's fun.

 Here's A 12 Pack Saranac's Holiday 12 Beers box gives you 12 different bottles, so you get a complete beer education in a box. This year's version includes a Hefeweizen, Dunkel, Light, Pale Ale, Amber, Pilsner, Black and Tan, Chocolate Amber, Single Malt (a favorite), India Pale Ale, Stout and Caramel Porter. Not in this year's pack is the Black Forest (another favorite).

 Free Old Fezziwig! Old Fezziwig is a magnificent holiday brew from Sam Adams, lightly seasoned with cinnamon, ginger and orange. Unfortunately, it's nearly unknown, as it's only commercially available as part of the Sam Adams Winter Classics 12-pack, in which you only get two bottles of it! In this year's version of the 12-pack, you also get two bottles each of the Boston Lager and Winter Lager, two of the Light (which is good, but hardly a winter 'classic'), two bottles of the Vienna Style (whatever), and, worst of all, two bottles of the vile Cranberry Lambic, Sam's worst beer by far!. Come on, Boston Beer, release the Fezziwig in it's own 12-pack! Or how about something creative - a Fezziwig growler, or 22-oz bottle, or a mini-keg!

 I'm back! Yeah, it's been hectic. Perhaps I can close out the year in a blaze of postings...
