Inside Hopsmore's Christmas craft beer box packed with epic pale ales and lagers

Your Christmas just got that bit better, as we’ve got a special festive craft beer box deal for you.

So, we’ve recently launched a new craft beer club called Hopsmore. In our opinion, craft beer is one of the tastiest things around, so we want to spread the word.

As part of our club, we’re selling festive Christmas beer boxes. They have 20 beer cans in them, consisting of 10 different styles.

They’re great for Christmas gatherings, dinners, parties and New Years. They’re also just great to have at home for when you fancy a can.

Perfect for when you have people over (Hopsmore)

If you have a beer-loving friend or relative, you could buy them this gift and get it delivered straight to their home too. It would make the perfect surprise Christmas present.

Because it’s Christmas, we’re going to give you an extra £5 off. So, while the box is worth £45, you’ll only be paying £30. Just use the code 5XMASBOX at the checkout to grab the offer.

Here’s the lowdown on the great, different craft beers you’ll receive...
