I am actually a big fan of classic gimmick free German styles (although it is not that apparent from my ratings), so this is really great! Thanks Santa! (no idea who my German Santa is, even the return address had only a company name... maybe Beerhunter111?!) Picture of the haul: You are right! :) Enjoy good guessing! a lot of German Santas this year!
Message EuroSanta 06:55 Fri 7/28/2017 Originally posted by anstei My mailman delivered nice presents from Finland! http://imgur.com/a/gX5uB The box contained 12 Finnish beers, a bag of rye crisps and a letter from Santa describing all the beers. My poor Santa saw that I had plenty of Finnish beer already and must have had a hard time picking something, as I had been beer shopping in Finland merely a few days before he sent the box... But he managed to get me new beers with only one exception, good job! It was impossible for him to know that I brought a bottle of Pyynikin BBA Imperial Stout back home :) Here is the rest of the beers: https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/stadin-palokka-savuruis-portteri/193607/ https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/pyynikin-cloudberry-saison/452685/ https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/pyynikin-bourbon-barrel-aged-imperial-stout/485927/ https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/hiisi-hulluus/511039/ https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/hiisi-harjun-kettu-red-wheat-ale/524565/ https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/hiisi-peri-mosaic-pils/522604/ https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/humalove-werunhelsinki/508545/ https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/maku-imperial-stout/466364/ https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/sonnisaari-stout/481794/ https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/mustan-virran-mitzlaff/529341/ https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/the-flying-dutchman-skinny-legged-sun-burned-freckle-faced-white-boy-wheat-ipa/518546/ https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/bryggeri-helsinki-vuosi-sata/459525/ Thank you, Santa rosenbergh! A nice haul - Santa can’t know that you will be shopping in Finland when he sets the pairings ;) Also you may not be right with your Santa!

Message EuroSanta 07:10 Fri 7/28/2017 3 excellent hauls so far, at least 2 more boxes have been delivered and a few others are near their destination so hopefully we’ll see some more in the next few days. Most boxes are now on the road, 2 loads will be late but the rest will go out in time Please remember to thank your sender in reviews and leave feedback if you know who they are!

A photo will follow, as usual, on Monday when I get chance, although I have already made a start eating the chocolate biscuits and cannot guarantee there will be any left. I will save the packet though!
