WBM: Day 13

December 13:  After another strong showing at my weekly bowling league (and by strong I mean that I broke 100...once), I searched for Ninkasi's winter seasonal based on a recommendation.
Ninkasi Brewing's Sleigh'r
Named after the Sumerian Goddess of Beer, this Eugene, Oregon brewery has been brewing it up since 2006.  A huge fan of their double IPA, Tricerahops, I was interested to see how they could make an Alt style beer into a Northwest winter warmer.  Crisp like a lager, Sleigh'r has hints of chocolate and roasted barley.  This winter seasonal would be ideal for those that like the dark feel of a winter beer, but enjoy a lighter malt taste.
