Too late to organise Secret Santa once this is wrapped up?

@euro_santa? (or @eurosanta, I’m not sure)

I think, this right time to organize secret Santa. This round is more or less over.

Love your enthusiasm! My idea was to postpone the Secret Santa in January to make sure no parcel gets lost during the Xmas chaos, but I agree with you: it’s time for it!

Please give me 24 hours to prepare everything :wink:

My box from Spain arrived yesterday! Thank you so much @taboada!!!
Thank you that you organised such a fantastic Sidra-crate for my cellar :beers:

But sadly two cans didn’t make it - one got a whole during transport (Soma CocoLand) and one exploded when I was in the bathroon cleaning the bottles and cans… (Jakobsland The beat goes on). So to stay safe I put the other two Jakobsland cans on the balcony and will open them there tonight ;). Luckily it was the bathroom which was easy to clean! :paintbrush:

I am sorry @Erzengel form this.

Oooohhhh…Exploding cans!!! Sorry about that…Cocoland and The Beat Goes On are really good brews…It´s a shame, I hope at least you can sample this beers. Also, I see that I include two “Jakobsland Blending In” instead of one beer from Edge, sorry about that too.
I hope the crate would be a good addition for your collection, It was difficult to get.

Enjoy! Cheers,
Alex.
