Title: Christmas Bottle Swap.
Post by: nigel_c on October 07, 2014, 04:47:11 PM
Was talking to someone in work today and they mentioned Christmas. I nearly clobbered them but it got me thinking. I not that far away when you think about it in brewing terms.
What I was thinking was at out last meetup before Christmas ( or even our Christmas party) we should do a bottle swap. Everyone brings along something they consider to be something special, be it commercial or something special they may have brewed and have been saving for a special occasion and we swap them around.

A bit of Christmas wrapping paper and a=n attached raffle tickets and its all anonymous.
What do people think ? Could be a bit of fun and something nice to have with the turkey on the big day.
