RALEIGH, N.C. – Mims Distributing Company (http://www.mimsdistributing.com), a beer distributor servicing a nine-county area in and around the Triangle, has announced the release of a podcast on winter holiday beers. In the podcast, Tony Walldroff, craft brand manager, discusses the styles of beers popular around the holidays, from big, hoppy beers, such as Sierra Nevada’s Celebration Ale, to robust stouts, such as Samuel Adams’ Merry Mischief Gingerbread Stout, and rare, collectible beers, such as Anchor’s Christmas Ale, which changes annually to a new recipe, making each year a one-time treat. In addition, he offers advice to novice beer drinkers on trying new beers and which beers to bring to the table to consume along with the holiday meal.
