12/24/24: HighGrain Brewing's Pho King Christmas Ale

We've nearly made it! My presents are wrapped and, as soon as my kid goes to sleep, they'll be placed beneath the tree. Santa's bringing someone an orange monster truck, fulfilling a Christmas wish. The season's been hectic because, well, it always is. I'm taking a quick break before diving back into work (those cookies and milk won't consume themselves!). This evening's beer was in the advent calendar Michelle put together for me: HighGrain's Pho King Christmas Ale. Does it taste like pho? Let's see! HighGrain, based in a converted municipal building in Silverton, OH (just up the road from where I lived in Cincinnati), is a brewery devoted to sustainability (they also have a second brewing location out in the Brentwood area of Finneytown, OH). They use renewable electric at the brewery, have EV charging stations, a native plant garden, and more. You can hit up their "Our Story" page for further info on who they are and what they do. Pho King has a little spot on the brewery's Silverto
