    It is the booze and a tidy selection of brewery's that I wouldn't find at home.

    I will go first as it’s now 20th. I was pleased with these 3 brew York beers as occasionally see brew York on tap in Manchester I can’t recall seeing them in shops round here before. I’ve had all 3 now and the imperial tonkoko stout was my favourite, amazing flavours. The sellout juice was good but perhaps a tad too strong tasting for an ipa. Brew York brew York an easy drinking pale. Cheers!

    Are they New World ales, lol ? I received a can of the Tonkoko stout as well in my package which I thoroughly enjoyed.

    Received my box today... From either a very generous or a drunk Santa.

    Never had any of them - really looking forward to them. Gonna try and wait till Christmas!

    Many thanks, and Merry Christmas. Cheers!

    I’ve never heard of Thirst Class Ale or Torrside Brewing before, and while I know about Buxton, not tried this particular one.

    The New Zealand Pale is a very sessionable 4.4%, crisp and fruity. Looking forward to the other two. Thanks Santa :grin:

    I'm having trouble sharing my secret santa photo as photobucket is now asking for payment for third party site hosting, any tips?

    My apologies for not posting and saying thanks to my Santa. The beer is in my belly, so no pics, but I was super happy as I particularly love green hop beers and I remember eyeballing Imp of the Perverse in a bottle shop once and later kicking myself for not getting it.
    Conger Tun Ale - The Cheshire Brewhouse
    Green Hop Beer - Dunham Massey Brewing Company
    Imp of the Perverse - Manchester Marble Brewery
