’Twas the Drunk Before Christmas: A Craft Beer Republic Christmas Story

Each holiday season brings its own traditions — familiar stories, warm rooms, and a drink shared by the fire. This year, Craft Beer Republic is proud to introduce a new holiday tradition with the release of ’Twas the Drunk Before Christmas, a fully produced Christmas story created especially for craft beer fans.

Unlike a typical craft beer podcast episode, ’Twas the Drunk Before Christmas is presented as a complete holiday audio story. Inspired by the structure and tone of classic Christmas narration, the episode unfolds with festive music, thoughtful sound design, and a straight-faced delivery that rewards careful listening. It’s a Christmas story meant to be enjoyed in one sitting — cozy, familiar, and unmistakably Craft Beer Republic.

This Christmas podcast special blends the warmth of seasonal storytelling with the perspective of a long-running craft beer podcast. While beer is never far from the story, the focus is on atmosphere and tradition rather than discussion or debate. There are no segments, no reviews, and no interruptions — just a holiday story designed to feel at home alongside the classics.

’Twas the Drunk Before Christmas is best enjoyed the way holiday stories have always been enjoyed: with the lights low, a fire nearby, hot cocoa on one side and a cold beer on the other. Whether you’re a longtime listener of Craft Beer Republic or discovering the show for the first time, this Christmas episode offers a welcoming entry point into a craft beer holiday tradition.

The episode is available now on all major podcast platforms, including Apple Podcasts and Spotify. Listeners searching for a Christmas podcast, holiday craft beer content, or a unique Christmas audio story will find something familiar and comforting here — with just enough of a twist to make it memorable.

From all of us at Craft Beer Republic, we hope ’Twas the Drunk Before Christmas becomes part of your holiday listening for years to come.

Thanks for drinking. Thanks for joining. And as always — stay hydrated.
