Why can't Winter Warmer be available all year. Without reservation I have to say that Winter Warmer is THE best beer I have had in 30 years of drinking!!! The best!

I like it as well......... the time it takes to make would make it difficult to fit into the schedule for a year round beer. Sorry :-(

Thanks for your support!

Cheers - Fritz Rahr

Your year round beers measure up. Your IPA is probably the best IPA I've ever had. Your Winter Warmer is the best beer ever known to man.

What are the chances of bottling some of the barrel aged winter warmer? Maybe in some 22 oz bombers and distributing to local beer/liquor stores?

We are thinking about it!!!!!!

Had the Barrel Aged Winter Warmer in Waco; quite possibly the single best winter brew I, or the numerous friends I had try it, have ever had.
