Hey there, hops fans. We’re feeling grateful for our hop-loving friends like you! As a special treat for you, we’re pleased to share the latest (and greatest!) edition of our Hoppiness Delivered Thanksgiving Beerecipe Guide. While there are many great beer pairings to enjoy throughout your turkey day, did you know that many of these Thanksgiving dishes can also incorporate beer as an ingredient? For everything from appetizers to desserts, we’ve gathered our favorite recipe from our friends around the craft beer industry and compiled them here for your holiday cooking pleasure. Don’t say we didn’t warn you, this is a seriously tasty lineup. Just remember, Thanksgiving is a marathon, not a sprint. So, sit back, relax and let the holiday feasting season begin! Cheers!
