21st Amendment Brewery releases Fireside Chat Winter Spiced Ale

If you like your winter ales with a bit of spice, then the return of 21st Amendment Brewery’s Fireside Chat is just what you have been looking for. This years edition of the fan-favorite winter seasonal is a holiday ale with a special spice blend and TCHO cocoa nibs in a warming 7.9% abv base beer. Now available in 12oz cans, 6-packs, and draft in 33 states.

More from a press release:

Lush and flavorful Ghana cocoa nibs from TCHO Chocolate (San Francisco, Calif.) add a deep layer of texture to Fireside Chat for a beautiful malt character of eight different malts. The English-style strong ale is well-balanced by Shaun O'Sullivan's (Co-Founder and Brewmaster, 21st Amendment Brewery) select winter spices. It's no wonder Fireside Chat took home a Silver Medal from Great American Beer Festival, and Men's Health magazine ranks it #1 of the "10 Best Christmas Beers 2020"


O'Sullivan notes, "Fireside Chat has a wonderful warming amber color, bright toffee foam head, soft spice profile, and a rich chocolate layer on the finish that's quite elegant. We made some slight tweaks to the 2021 recipe that I think our beer fans will enjoy. I'm excited to see what they think. Also, the packaging features President Franklin D. Roosevelt (who signed the 21st Amendment to the U.S. Constitution into law) having a jovial fireside conversation with an elf. Why not be like FDR and enjoy a Fireside Chat of your own this holiday season. I don't think it gets much better than that."


Since 2000, 21st Amendment Brewery has brewed innovative limited-edition holiday beers for people to enjoy and be a part of unforgettable memories.

About 21st Amendment Brewery

21 years ago (established in 2000), Nico Freccia and Shaun O'Sullivan opened the doors to the 21st Amendment brewpub in San Francisco's historic South Park neighborhood. In addition to quickly becoming one of the city's favorite pubs, 21st Amendment began expanding beyond the Bay Area by helping to pioneer the movement to canned craft beer. Known for their witty names and delicious brews, 21st Amendment offers year-round selections, as well as seasonal offerings and their infamous once-in-a-while limited-edition releases. Sold in 33 states plus Washington D.C., 21st Amendment produces beer in its state-of-the-art brewery headquarters in San Leandro, California and is among the top 50 craft beer brewers in America.
