On the left is the best advent calendar ever. A beer a day from December 1st through 24th. All imported German beers, and all large (16.9oz) cans. I can remember the disappointment of my youth, when all we got behind the picture was another picture. Not any more. And on the right is a mini-keg of local Christmas ale. Both items from Costco, which we finally joined this year, after holding out for many years. Peace on Earth, and Good Beer to all men and women.
