More than 180 years ago, the Christmas reindeer that you now know as "Donner and Blitzen," were originally named, "Dunder and Blixem." These famous reindeer are the inspiration for our original recipe to celebrate the holidays. A spicy, higher alcohol beer, it is meant to be enjoyed around that chilly time of year, but is also a great sipping beer for any occasion. Awarded a silver medal at the 2014 Florida Beer Championships, the name "Dunder and Blixem," translates in Dutch to "Thunder and Lightning."
