Winter may have officially started back in December, but the chill is only now starting to hit. So four of the beer-loving reporters at this newspaper sought out a brew to warm us after a trek in the blustery cold weather. We did a blind taste test on three winter beers brewed in the borough. Here are our findings.

Winter shootout: We tried three winter brews from three Brooklyn brewhouses to see which was best at warming us after cold walk from the subway: Coney Island Brewing Company’s “The Plunge,” Sixpoint Brewery’s “Global Warmer,” and Brooklyn Brewery’s “Insulated Dark Lager.”
