Gifts for thirsty folk
Mondo Brewery 5L mini-keg (pictured above)
Nothing screams cockney London like a keg party: frat boys, beer pong, twit in a toga etc etc. Anywaaaay… Battersea’s ace Mondo Brewery does some five-litre kegs of beer, including its poky 6.2% Brewing for Kubler IPA, and its frankly quite scary 7.3% Stratosphere IPA. Spend Christmas lying under one like you're Drinky Crow. Duuude.
