As the holidays and end-of-year celebrations draw closer, NEFF Brewing, 321 S. Frankfort Ave., brewed up a special stout just for those occasions: Earthrise Holiday Stout. It comes in at 7.5% and is brewed with fresh cinnamon, vanilla and nutmeg for some nice holiday flavors. “It’s smooth. It’s easy drinking. It’s got a nice holiday spice aroma to it,” says owner and brewmaster Jonathon Neff. “I would say it’s maybe cinnamon forward on the front end. It kind of finishes with the nutmeg and vanilla on the back end of the beer.”
