There's no place like home for the holidays, and there's no place like the kitchen for beer! It's no secret that a well-stocked fridge of Great Lakes Brewing Co. beer is sure to please during the holidays, but saving a bottle or two for the saucepan will yield dishes so delicious even the pickiest eater will be asking for more!

Discover what our brewpub chefs have always known and add a splash of our award-winning beer to your holiday entrées, sides, and desserts. Below are just a few of our favorite beer-infused recipes perfect for Thanksgiving, Christmas, or anytime you want to pair great beer with good food and friends.


ROASTED TURKEY THIGHS WITH CHRISTMAS ALE GLAZE
Flavorful from-scratch beer infused sauces and dressings have long been a signature at our Cleveland brewpub. With warm cinnamon aromas, sweet molasses flavors, and a tangy ginger finish, Christmas Ale Glaze will gift a festive flourish to your favorite holiday dishes and bring a taste of our pub to your table. Use a little (or a lot!) to kick up your roasted vegetables, pork tenderloin, ham, and more with a festive zip that everyone will enjoy. See how easy it is to use with our simple and delicious Roasted Turkey Thighs with Christmas Ale Glaze recipe. Find bottles of Christmas Ale Glaze at our gift shop, in select retailers throughout Ohio, and online here.

ELIOT NESS AMBER LAGER MUSHROOM GRAVY
Arguably the most important side dish for the holidays (sorry, stuffing), no Thanksgiving dinner is complete without a rich and savory gravy. The smooth and malty Eliot Ness Amber Lager (one of our favorite beers to cook with) is the not-so-secret ingredient in our flavorful Eliot Ness Amber Lager Mushroom Gravy recipe. It's a gravy so good you may want to pour some in a glass (but we recommend saving a cold beer for that). Get the recipe here.

ROASTED CARROTS WITH DORTMUNDER GOLD HONEY GLAZE

Sweet, tender, and hearty, our Roasted Carrots with Dortmunder Gold Honey Glaze is a side so scrumptious you may forget you're eating veggies. The best part about making this dish? The recipe saves enough Dortmunder Gold for you to enjoy while you make it! Go ahead, chef... have yourself a sip! Get the recipe here.

HOLY MOSES WHITE ALE ORANGE MARMALADE WITH DINNER ROLLS
This might be our easiest "recipe" yet! Just open a jar of Christmas Ale Strawberry Cranberry & Cinnamon Jam and slather it on your favorite dinner roll for a sweet and citrusy kick. Through a collaborative (and sustainable!) partnership, our friends at Cleveland Jam use low-fills of some of our favorite year-round brews for a variety of beer jams, including the Eliot Ness Fig Apple Jam, Dortmunder Gold Raspberry Jalapeño Jam, and Burning River Pepper Jam. Find them at our gift shop, at select retailers throughout Ohio, and online here.

CHRISTMAS ALE PUMPKIN PIE

A slice and a sip of holiday cheer? Don't mind if we do! You'll be happy you saved room for dessert with our beloved Christmas Ale Pumpkin Pie recipe. Prefer an apple pie? We've got a recipe for that, too! Now that's how you slice up a win-win at the dessert table.
