Hanukkah, Chanukah: Pass The Beer | Shmaltz Brewing Co. Clifton Park, NY

The official Chosen Beer of this holiday season, Hanukkah, Chanukah: Pass The Beer® is a dark ale brewed with eight malts, eight hops and heats up at 8% ABV.

No matter how you spell the festival of lights, Hanukkah, Chanukah: Pass The Beer® is the only winter warmer that celebrates all the miracles of the eight crazy nights. Eight is a miraculous number in Jewish life. Its cultural/religious significance runs the gamut with several holidays spanning eight days (Chanukah, Passover, Sukkot), and a bris (circumcision) taking place on the newborn’s eighth day. Mel Brooks stole a cap gun from Woolworths at age eight, and “The Producers” won eight Outer Critic Circle Awards.

As latkes are frying and the battle royale of dreidels are spinning, Shmaltz offers some much needed light to the impending winter darkness with its latest fermented creation straight from the tanks at the Upstate New York brewery.
