One of my online WW pals opens really fun advent calendars from Aldi every holiday season. I finally joined the advent group last year with a wine calendar. I don’t really love wine so I still have several tiny bottles kicking around one year later. I spotted a German beer advent calendar at Costco for $90 and debated each visit on if I should spend the money. I caved in and snagged one before they were gone.
I am going to highlight the first six days of beer. I am loving it! I am so glad I got this calendar and other than when beer (day nine) it has been delicious. I open the calendar in the morning for a reveal on Instagram and Facebook stories and then drink one most nights. Considering I had a two pound loss, I am thinking the “beer diet” might finally be how I can lose weight!
Without further ado, here is Day 1 - 6 of the German Advent Calendar. I will also include the tasting notes from the Beer Tasting App.
Day 1: I love a good light German lager. This was a nice way to start off the countdown.
Day 2: This weissbier (white beer) was really, really good. I think weissbiers might be a new favorite. Plus, the can looked cool.
Day 3: Similar to a lager, you can’t go wrong with a pils. This was nothing special but still tasty.
Day 4: Kellerbier is also a new favorite. It is light and tasty. There are several of this variety in the pack so far.
Day 5: You cannot go wrong with a stout and I hope to uncover more in the mix as the month continues. Currently, I have opened through Day 14 and this is t he only stout so far.
Day 6: I don’t love the taste of a marzen, an amber type German beer and after getting sick following too much marzen at Oktoberfest a few years ago, it brings back memories when I drink a marzen. But, this pack has a few and I do enjoy drinking them.
More beer to come…stay tuned!
