Picked mine up
today, beautiful!
I had never seen one and they have this great added novelty, rather than just grab a beer each day (which I kinda assumed) there are actual box front perforations which allow you to punch out the round of cardboard and obtain the prescribed beer for each day. So it's exactly like those chocolate Advents Calendars that we had as kids. They used a great deal of cardboard constructing this pull-out-bottle feature to honor the Xmas tradition of buildup to the big day with suspense and sweet little surprises.
Anybody just unpack them all or do you follow the calendar? They used oodles of cardboard for this nice feature.
The glass is rather nice too, it's a deluxe 'tasting' style with a tall shape and a flared upper section to allow the foam to settle and the aromas to develop. I have none like it so it's a great bonus, looks like high quality crystal-type glass. Also there's a small tasting & scoring guide included, just a glossy pamphlet stuck in the glass which should spur on some thoughtful beer appreciation.
A kudos to the importers!
