What Did You Get For Xmas

[Fish13]

Aussie beer hamper.

Comes with the 4 headmaster schooner glasses, a stubbie each of XXXX Summer, Hienekin, Coopers Clear and Stones Ginger Beer.

Was also surprised to find underneath the megaswill:

A stubbie each of: JS One Fifty Lashes Pale Ale, JS Amber Ale and Fat Yak.


I Also got a 5L keg of Hienekin and 2 Hienekin glasses from the other (darker h34r: ) side of the family.
Edit: The last sentence was not racist, just referring to the "in-Laws" as the Dark-Side of the family

How did you go with the dragon lady??

I received two books that I didn't expect which was really nice.

23L glass carboy to get more lambic brews down.
Ultimate Beer Guide Aus & NZ book.

The beginnings of my all grain brewery. A 40L crown urn, a grain bag, 1m of silicon tubing and a 20L cube.

I got a voucher for a craft brewery tour in Melbourne from my lovely wife, visiting three breweries in a day, ending the day at Biero.
That also includes the weekend in Melbourne, without the family. Very happy with that, will be a nice break.

Got a vacuum sealer. Should be useful for the vast amount of hops I have in the freezer at the moment.

But most excited by the 24hr sous vide pork ribs I'll be doing in the next day or 2.

I did well this year, I got a March pump, plate chiller & 70L pot for the brewery. I also got some clothes, some Staun tyre deflators for the 4x4, and a bottle of Johnnie Walker green label.

 

[GrumpyPaul]

Mixed pack of 10 very nice looking beers off the eldest son. The 1 litre Paulaner Oktoberfest can and massive beer glass to pour it in from daughter.



Particularly looking forward to trying the Chimay Blue ( should this be drunk at a particular temp?)

Oh and some cologne of other sone and nice new belt of youngest.

Ticket to soundwave!

(However I have used up about 10 yrs of my own xmas and birthday pressies with brewing items over the past few years...)

It will say the serving temp on the back of the bottle. IIRC, it's 8C?

 

[lukec]

My lady friend supplied me with a playstation 3, 2200 watt element for HLT and temp controller and thermowell.

 

[Diesel80]

I dropped hints for vintage single malt scotch but got Jamesons, the luck of the Irish! :/

Enjoy your new toys all :icon_cheers:

Hehe, no hints here and scored a 18yo Extra Rare Glenmorangie , Fancy gold box, fancy pamphlet inside. No idea when i will drink it but it is the oldest scotch i have owned, never tasted an 18 yo single malt.

Cheers,
D80

We had a fantastic Xmas Day, eat drink and be merry.

What Did You Get For Xmas

That's not big on our agenda.

I hope you all had a good one.

Not sure about that but don't over-chill the Innes & Gunn and you'll have a super nice beer.... :icon_cheers:
