Christmas 2017 beer gifts

Post by swenocha »

Maybe a bit early for this post, but I received an interesting gift today from a guy who I helped with his career path this year, so thought I'd start the "what beer gifts did you get for Christmas this year" thread...

This is an interesting (and huge) beer advent calendar, filled with 24 16.9oz German beers that are otherwise not available in the US. Should be a fun... My understanding is that they are available at some Costco locations for anyone interested...

I saw this last year on a youtube channel from a guy from England. He actually did 24 videos (very short ones) of each of the beers. I recall he wasn't pleased with some but others he enjoyed very much.
If any stand out, let us know.
Sorry, nothing 'gifty' to share!

The store where I buy my beer has a couple of them. I’ve thought about buying one, but they are a bit pricey for a case of beer. I would like to know your thoughts as you drink them.

^^ No doubt, keep us informed with your thoughts as you partake of them. I showed this to my wife this morning, she thought it was pretty neat. Also a nice unexpected gift from the guy.
