Still waiting but I'm sure they will be actually pretty good. Anyone else know if your getting anything good yet?
 
I shouldn't have, but I peeked at my wife's web history and saw that she's getting me "IPA" by Mitch Steele, and "Brewing Better Beer" by Gordon Strong. Plus I have a feeling there'll be a certificate that says "an afternoon without kids to brew" or the like.

She's an awesome lady. For my birthday, she painted me a picture of hops.

Saw a box from Keg Connection that UPS had left on the porch. Hoping its a dual tap tower kit.
 
Got one early :) I was bottling off 3 partial kegs and my wife said "open this, you can use it". It was a bottling tree with vinerator sanitizer pump...I like it :)
 
Sweet on the vineator (auto correct and fat thumbs almost had me putting vibrator).

SWMBO and I just bought a house about 6 weeks ago. I was told that the garage was for brewing and bicycles only, no cars. Good enough gift for me. :)

(The house was our gift to each other this year)
 
Wort chiller for me. It came early, though, when I was looking through boxes for my brew notebook (we just moved) and I opened one to find the chiller. I casually closed the box and walked away, but see called me out minutes later asking if I had opened the box...

Reading IPA right now. I have been enjoying it. Love the hop painting, too.

My garage is pretty much chock full with just bikes and beer. I did leave some room in the driveway if anyone drives to my house, though.
 
I told her I would like some Amarillo hops, so I'm pretty sure she bought me a pound, and she dropped hints her parents bought me something homebrew related. Won't know for sure till Christmas with her parents.
 
My wife just gave me a new mash tun and a case of bombers of very good beers. Some 12/12/12/. Pierre Jacques, Double Jack, Wookey Jack, Laguntis, and my memory is fading from crackinginto the stash, but everything in the box was good.. My mash tun was a hand me down and pretty beat up, and she got one with a nice false bottom... good stuff.

Of course she likes my beer so encourages my brewing habit.
 
The wife got me these awesome new mugs w my logo on them. They're holding a breakfast stout

My grandma bot me a 2000mL yeast starter kit and aunt got me an altbier kit. I also got glassware and I'm pretty sure my parents are getting me some stuff to go AG with. Im psyched.
 
I already got all my xmas presents..... but it was a VERY good xmas:

4 NEW kegs - 2 x 3 gallon and 2x 5 gallon
Pure Oxygen aeration set up
$100 northern brewer gift card
Wild Brews
For the Love of Hops
Glassware for behind the bar
 
I specifically ask for no gifts, from anyone, not because I'm a scrooge. Unless I say exactly what I want, they have no idea what to get me, and unless it's exactly what I want, I don't want it. So, I just get myself something when I need it.
To the men who have wives with the ability to buy brewing equipment: you are lucky guys.
