How to Play the 12 Beers of Christmas

Jumping into the 12 Beers of Christmas is easy, festive, and all about keeping up each week. Here’s how to play:

1. Show Up to any st. nick location

Starting November 28th, we release 3 new limited Christmas beers each week for 4 weeks. They’re small batch — only one keg per location — and once they kick, they’re gone.

2. Order christmas Beers

To participate, order each Christmas beer in a snifter glass.
No pints, no upgrades, no growler fills! Flights and samples are allowed, but samples do not count toward completing the game.

3. Get Your Card From Your Server

Ask your server to get started. They’ll give you your card and walk you through how the challenge works.
You must start your card in Week 1 to qualify for the mug club prize.

4. Bring Your Card Back and Try All 12 Beers

Your card is your key to the game!
Bring it back each week, try the new beers, and stay on track.
Only snifter purchases count!

Try all 12 beers across all 4 weeks to qualify for the grand prize: A Membership to the St. Nicholas Mug Club

Miss a Beer or Two? Keep Going!!

Don’t stop playing. Incomplete cards will be entered into a drawing, giving you another chance to win a year-long membership to the St. Nicholas Mug Club.

5. Keep It Fun

These beers are extremely limited, so follow the rules, enjoy each weekly drop, and have fun playing your way through all 12.

6. return your card

return your completed (or best effort) into any st. nick location and reap the rewards!
