So what beer, wines or spirits do you get in or consume elsewhere, that you don't bother with during the rest of the year?

I only ever drink spirits at Xmas and usually get a bottle or 2 of JD, some Dark Rum, Sambuca, Vodka and a few different wines

Me and my brother in law generally look for the biggest bottle of JD we can find and make our way through that on Christmas, I don't generally drink it any other time of the year ha

Always make our own sloe gin to give as Christmas presents and of course for ourselves. I like a Bailey's and a nice gin as well at Christmas. Most of the year I'm a real ale or red wine kind of guy

We usually get a bottle of rum in and do at least one night of destruction. Won't be as fun flying solo this year but also mega

I keep mine in the fridge and use 'Granite Ice Cubes' as it's horrible if ice melts and dilutes it

Snowball!! No not that type, you are all very dirty minded

Go through loads of the little ready mixed bottled while cooking dinner.

I don't generally drink during the year, I work with the stuff!

I only enjoy the odd flavoured one really. More a summer drink for me. Although I did enjoy the odd Toffee Apple cider at Halloween

Never had any decent results with home brew so gave up fairly quickly.

Who won the arm wrestle?

I learned how to do home brew from ma dad, he made his own wine and sherry as well from scratch, non of the kits that you can get these days

Of course ma auntie won, I think she let me have a glass of it afterwards
