It’s the fourth year that I’m doing the #12BeersofXmas and once again I’ve dug into the cupboard to see what’s been scavenged and stashed in preparation for this moment. Starting on 20 December and running through until New Year’s Eve, I’ll be drinking a beer a day and sharing my thoughts somehow.
This year I’ll be posting my daily thoughts on Instagram of the beers that I’ll be enjoying…
And here’s when I’ll be drinking them…
Tuesday 20 December ~ Mikkeller ‘Big Worse’
Wednesday 21 December ~ Anarchy ‘Done Time’
Thursday 22 December ~ Buxton ‘Axe Edge’ & ‘Barrel Aged Double Axe Edge’
Friday 23 December ~ Crooked Stave ‘Origins’
Christmas Eve ~ Brasserie D’Achouffe ‘ N’Ice Chouffe’
Christmas Day ~ Thornbridge ‘Love Among the Ruins’ & ‘Days of Creation’
Boxing Day ~ Magic Rock/Evil Twin ‘Pognophobia’
Tuesday 27 December ~ Adnams ‘Triple Knot 2015’
Wednesday 28 December ~ Brewdog ‘Abstrakt AB:20’
Thursday 29 December ~ JW Lees ‘Harvest Ale 2014’
