Christmas has come early! 20 litres of the Blackberry and Elderflower cider some of you were lucky enough to sample at the LAN has found it's way to Tealeaf and I.

Hope you guys will have as good a Christmas as us!

Very nice, I recall trying it out and apart from being far too easy going down, (no comments) it was lovely. Happy Christmas !

Thankee kindly, I believe we will be enjoying it a lot! :thumbsup::cheers:

The Blackberry & Elderflower cider was a big hit at both the beer festival and the LAN.  Iirc the box we had at the LAN went in about 90 minutes when it was put on at the bar, so I figured we should have some for Christmas.  

The only problem being that once we open container it we have to finish it. But Dex and I can live with problems like that! :norty:

Aye I know the feeling, quaff able drinks are hard to resist once temptation has taken hold.

We have a Milan Pillsner from the Dutch brewery Hertog Jan, called Enkel:

It's a light 4.5% IPA style pils but with the flavour of a full on DIPA.

I am very sure it will feature again at another lan as it was a massive hit and it had all gone by the time I got to buying a pint. Snooze you lose [emoji2]

Enjoy guys and be merry. My yearly beer advent calendar is also almost finished. 24 bottles of different ales from across the South coast from my local brewery for only £65. Some hits and a few misses that will be avoided in future.

I've just finished this beer advent calender one from Beerwulf.com which I got as a gift from the gf.

There were some nice beers in there, also a few you'd think that would suit summer more but ahwell. Enjoy your holidays and see you next time at the AA-meeting...
EDIT: I can't seem to change the picture to the correct picture, no not drunk..
