The 12th was popular for a xmas beer guess - I suppose as in the 12 days of xmas. I suppose the 24th to as that is the last day before. And there's not been an xmas beer yet. Fortunately I have a stock of them from the same place I bought the advent beers from :-) My guess now would be something other than blonde because you only usually get 2 in a row.
 
day 22 & 23 - Two blonds :oops: One correct guess - Ghille gets off the mark! athumb..

day 22 - la guillotine blonde - one of my faves, its duval-ish.
day 23 - tongelero blonde



P- Name ------- played --points

1. Leon103 ----------- 11 - 12.5
2. Cushyno ----------- 11 - 10
3. Dad of Jon -------- 12 - 10
4. Honk ---------------- 11 -- 7.5
5. Oneflewover ------ 11 -- 5
5. Stigman ------------ 11 -- 5
7. Ghille --------------- 12 -- 5
8. Eight Ace ---------- 11 -- 0

Added a barry island ipa to the commercial choice of beers as a prize.

So thanks all for entering, final beer tomorrow and it boils down to this....

If the beer is a triple CushyNo wins
If the beer is an xmas beer then its a tie between Leon103 & Honk (because Honk has day 24 as his joker.) - DOJ thinks hard for a tie-break question... aunsure....
If it's any other type of beer then Leon103 wins.

I kind of think it's going to be an Xmas beer 'cos it says Xmas beer on the calender as being one of the type in the box and, erm, not had one appear yet!
(Could be a typo thought) I think they should have called it the 12 blondes of christmas :eek:

good luck to the 3 'Finalists'

Though I'd be very happy for DOJ to finally get a Xmas beer in his box, this is proving to be a very blonde Xmas so far. I reckon Leon103 has inside knowledge!
 
So the final day brings this......


final day - bush noel.

so the final scores are....

P- Name --------points

1. Leon103 --------17.5
2. Honk ------------ 17.5
3. Oneflewover -- 15
3. Stigman --------15
5. Cushyno -------10
5. Dad of Jon ----10
5. Eight Ace -----10
8. Ghille ----------- 5

We're all winners really as no-one walked away with 0 points (how's that for inclusivity?)

So it's tie-break time for Leon103 & Honk...

What's the ABV of my last beer? (it's a barley wine) - closest guess wins. As ever i've measured it to .1 abv.

best of luck - it's showdown time :cool:
 
Good game, good game, thanks for running it.

I'm going to guess at 9.4%
 
Leon103 - My barley wine is 10.5%

kudos to Honk for a close match athumb...

So Leon pick from my sig and choose from leroy stout, barry island ipa (being from wales you might have come across that) and a mystery blonde from the calendar.

As for the calendar i'd absolutely recommend it if you like blonde beers (which I do ) just a little more variety would be nice.:rolleyes:
 
Well done leon103, and I hope you enjoy your calendar beers dadofjon.

(I can't see your signature either but it used to show as I can remember you had some interesting beers on it)
 
Wow thanks.

Great competition. Unlucky Honk, I got a lucky guess.

@dad_of_jon I can't see your signature, unless I need to be on a desktop to see them.

Here you go Leon...

Pink Grapefruit Ale - 7.22% - 3
Abbey-ness - abbey beer - 7.2% - 37
Pancake wheat beer - 5% - 5
Face Off - sour beer - 7.22% - 52
Cherry Xmas - brewferm kriek - 5.9% - 35
Liquid TNT - barley wine - 10.5% - 45

note that the grapefruit is UBER grapefruity almost like drinking juice ashock1
and the pancake wheat beer is uber flat :doh:
