As we move through October, it’s increasingly difficult not to be reminded that Christmas Day is fast approaching and therefore that the start of advent is even sooner. This means that many breweries are now beginning to launch their craft beer advent calendars, and if last year is anything to go by they will sell out pretty quickly, and you won't want to miss out!
What will you go for?
