1 of 5

It’s that time of year again. The holidays are the time to exchange gifts with friends and family, and this year, instead of going for the usual gift card, get the Game of Thrones fan in your life something special. If you don’t know where to start, we’ve got you covered with our comprehensive Game of Thrones holiday gift guide.

First up, for the Game of Thrones fan over the age of 21, Johnnie Walker has created a White Walker whisky, which all but sells itself:

Take it away, Walker:

"This new blend perfectly reminds Johnnie Walker and Game of Thrones fans alike that “Winter is Here.” The limited edition bottle utilizes thermochromic ink to give fans a frosty surprise message when frozen. With flavor notes like caramelized sugar, vanilla, and fresh red berries, White Walker by Johnnie Walker makes for a delicious serve. The new blend is best served ice cold, inspired by the White Walkers beyond The Wall."

Better hurry if you want to get the White Walker whiskey by Christmas; this is a limited release. Suggested retail price range from $31.99 – $89.99.

Finally, while we’re still on libations, Brewery Ommegang a new line of Game of Thrones beers. Check out the members of the “Royal Reserve Collection“:

Hand of the Queen: “Hints of molasses and toffee are evident before a finish characterized by the classic yet distinctive barleywine alcoholic heat. Hand of the Queen, an old-world example of the style, attempts to balance these strong yet unruly opposing forces, much like the way Tyrion maintains the balance of power among his influential contemporaries in Westeros.”
Queen of the Seven Kingdoms: “Aromas melon, citrus, and lactic acidity meld[ed] together with fruity esters from the Belgian yeast.” This beer is dedicated to Cersei Lannister.
Mother of Dragons: “Brewed and blended for a leader who takes what is hers with fire and blood, Mother of Dragons is a blend of a smoked porter and a Belgian kriek, representing the smoke and fire that Daenerys has unleashed on her opponents.”
King in the North Imperial Stout: Inspired by Jon Snow, this beer is “brewed to sustain a leader through a long, dark night…[It’s] jet black with a thick tan head…[and] aromas of roasted malt, coffee, and chocolate blend with those of oak, bourbon, and vanilla…[The flavor is] rich and full with notes of roasted malt up front followed by smooth bourbon and a hint of oak…[with a finish that’s] thick and chewy with oatmeal creaminess, and pleasant lingering roast.”
