For children, Christmas is simply magical. Every day begins with a sweet surprise from the Advent calendar and an eager glance outside. Has it snowed overnight? Can the sled finally be brought out of the cellar and tested? On St. Nicholas Day, a boot overflowing with tangerines, chocolate, and other treats awaits on the doormat, and with each passing day, the euphoric anticipation of Christmas Eve grows. And when the day finally arrives, a mountain of presents piles up under the beautifully decorated and festively lit tree. The Christmas season is a veritable celebration filled with cookies, chocolate, gifts, afternoons spent sledding, hot chocolate, punch, and cheerful Christmas carols. For adults, however, Advent often brings stress and a mountain of appointments and obligations. We are the ones who create the magic behind the scenes.

Fortunately, there are also Advent joys for adults. Christmas beers, for example!

Here we’d like to introduce you to Hummel’s Christmas beer, which, with its dark malt, caramel, and delightful spices, chases away the cold and stress. This seasonal treat from Franconia is brewed every year just in time for Advent and captivates with its full-bodied flavor, robust malt notes, and aromatic character. A welcome relief after the gift-buying marathon, the tedious task of shaping vanilla crescent cookies, and the last-minute Advent calendar assembly!
