I've got my Draughtmaster machine primed with 5% Belgian Stella plus a couple of Bath's Landsdowne ales.
Gower gold do a 5litre cask.....I've already drunk 2 in the last 6 days. Incredibly fresh.
 
Aldi did a Christmas gin which Mrs. Winston and I will be tucking into. Plus some Asti with dinner. And maybe some Port. We'll see.
 
Staropraman 12
Birra Moretti 16
Kopparberg Cider 12
Bottle of spiced rum 1 litre
Bacardi 1 litre
Vodka 1 litre
Bailey's 2 bottles
Slab of pepsi
Slab of Fanta orange
Pineapple juice
Raspberry and cranberry juice
All for some cocktails

That's about it
 
Red wine with Christmas dinner, clearing out a cupboard yesterday and found a 3 year old bottle of sloe gin, shall be getting stuck into it tomorrow afternoon.🍷🍷🍷
 
Glass or two of Champagne. Then some Gervrey Chambertin with dinner. Polish that off and perhaps a Sauternes with some cheeses later.
I like my wines and push the boat out for the big
Day. All from Aldi though, but even there the burgundy was over 25 quid.

That burgundy Prof....can you post a link to it?

Sold out by the looks of it. Still the more basic Baune on the Aldi site though.
 
Aldi do a 40 year old Tawny Port for Christmas which sells out pretty quick. Worth grabbing a bottle if you see it, even for £30. Tastes like a Christmas cake. Very nice.
 
Had a weak Kraken spiced last night, lovely it was, today, coffee first, drop of bubbles with me turkey and later I will have my annual drop of Sherry, always on an xmas night.....I blame my parents..........
 
A bottle of Rasteux last night. Today will be whatever my sister-in-law throws at me and when I get home it will be Peroni and maybe some rum.

Got some Gigondas in my stash. Both are better value than Chateauneuf.

I know nothing about wine, I just drink it! :shock:

The Rasteux was a random try 6 months ago and I enjoyed it so I pick up a bottle every now and then. :D
