A beer a day in November

I neither know nor care what Advent is. It's not hockey. It's not beer...or is it?

I picked up this beauty at a nearby Costco store. Twenty-four half-liters of German beers for $75, not bad. Each one is conveniently numbered so you can pull out a beer a day.

Best of all, I had never had any of them before. In fact, I hadn't even heard of a lot of the breweries.

All the notes are on beerme.com now, so I'll just list the links and scores here.
