As we head toward the solstice, we could all use something to alleviate the gloom of increasingly dark winter days. Luckily, Portland breweries have a wealth of wintry beers that will do just that, from Cascade Brewing's Glueh Kriek (spiced mulled sour cherry ale) to Stormbreaker Brewing's award-winning winter warmer Winter Coat. Read on for more festive seasonal brews. For more ideas, check out the Mercury's holiday food and drink guide, including our list of places to get takeout for the holidays.

Baerlic Brewing
In tribute to their late friend, the legendary Portland craft beer veteran and totcho inventor Jim Parker, Baerlic Brewing has brewed the "Jim Parker's Winter Warmer Holiday Ale," an homage to the first beer Jim brewed professionally over 22 years ago, featuring "candied orange, grapefruit and pine flavors and aromas" from Northwest-grown Columbus, Cascade, and Chinook hops.
