Review: Scrooge & Marley New London Lager

One of my Christmas gifts this holiday season was this 12 pack of beers from Scrooge & Marley. This (fictional) brewery only sells this seasonal holiday gift pack . The New London Lager is a straightforward American Lager in the style of a Macro Brew Lager. Very drinkable, smooth finish, nothing fancy. Not to say there are not many much better lagers available, this is a nice average entry in the category. I think the whole variety pack is a fun conversation piece at a holiday gathering more than a serious attempt at craft brewing.

Review: Scrooge & Marley Red Ale

Fairly average Red Ale, tries to be Killians but more of a watered down taste.

Review: Scrooge & Marley Hazelnut Christmas Ale

One of my Christmas gifts one holiday season was this 12 pack of beers from Scrooge & Marley. This (fictional) brewery only sells this seasonal holiday gift pack . I think the whole variety pack is a fun conversation piece at a holiday gathering more than a serious attempt at craft brewing. That being said this Ale was very tasty and drinkable. The hazelnut and other spices were a nice blend without having an overpowering taste that I have found in some other Christmas Ales
