The holidays are typically a time for cutting loose and spiking the egg nog with whatever feels appropriate, especially if you find yourself dealing with that one particular family member that you have no choice but to begrudgingly see once a year. Of course, there are also the folks who are drinking a little less these days—thankfully, with the rise of non-alcoholic beverages and their popularity, there are plenty of options.
But for the beer folks who are cutting back (re: me), the holiday options are a little more limited as there aren’t as many holiday beers (love you, Mad Elf and Merry Monkey). Thankfully, NA beer brand Athletic Brewing and Food52 have collaborated on Host & Toast, a supremely delicious Belgian-Style White with Meyer Lemon. It’s refreshing, light, and has just the right amount of that special herbal Belgian-ish flavor and spice, something that is genuinely missing from the worlds of NA beer.
