What beer things did you get for Christmas?

[aiptasia]

I got this, the double pretentous beer drinker's glass for mixing the perfect black and tan. In the trial run, I mixed a Goose Island BCBS with a freshly carbonated batch of my house pale ale. Frigging delicious.

So, what did you get?

 

[fenderbass]

We are going to start all grain brewing, so I got a wort chiller and a propane burner, but the guy ordered the wrong burner. I'll replace it with the jet burner that we wanted. Now we just have to get the rest of the gear...
I got a book, The Complete Beer Course.
