At this magical time of year we are invited to slow down, gather together, and savour the things that matter most. At Tun Brewing Co., Christmas is the season where great beer meets great company, and this year we wanted to create a gift that embraces that idea. The result is our limited-edition Christmas Hamper, now available to order!
Thoughtfully curated, beautifully presented, and designed with inclusivity at its core, this hamper isn’t just a collection of artisan treats – it’s an experience to be enjoyed and shared with the people you want to spend the season with most. Whether you're searching for the perfect present for the craft-beer connoisseur in your life or want to elevate your own festive celebrations at home, this is a gift that invites everyone to the table.
A Hamper Designed for Everyone at the Feast
Christmas indulgence shouldn’t exclude anyone, which is why we began with a clear mission: to make this hamper as inclusive as possible. Food allergies, intolerances, and lifestyle choices shouldn’t be barriers to enjoying exceptional beer paired with exceptional snacks.
That’s why every product in the hamper is either gluten-free or made without gluten ingredients. And because everyone deserves an equally delicious experience, we’ve ensured the hamper can be ordered as vegetarian or fully vegan, with seamless substitutions at no extra cost.
This commitment to inclusivity guided every decision – from the snacks chosen to complement our core beer range, to the centrepiece experience game included inside. If your festive gatherings mix omnivores, vegetarians, vegans, coeliacs or those with gluten sensitivities, everything inside this hamper can be enjoyed together, without compromise.
A Pairing Perfection, Crafted Around Our Core Beer Range:
Winter Warmer
A festive porter brewed for cold nights and glowing firesides, with ginger, orange peel and cinnamon bringing warmth and cheer to the dark months.
Daradach
A rich and smooth stout with layers of roasted coffee, dark chocolate, and subtle toasted grain. Balanced bitterness from East Kent Goldings meets a gentle, creamy mouthfeel.
Archetype
Packed with new-generation English hops from Charles Faram (a UK-based hop farm) and set on a malty, bready Maris Otter base, it’s a celebration of heritage and innovation.
Gem State of Mind
Hazy, juicy, and packed with tropical character, Gem State of Mind is a lush NEIPA with a smooth, pillowy mouthfeel thanks to wheat and oats. Idaho #7 and Citra hops bring waves of mango, pineapple, and citrus, with subtle pine and stone fruit undertones.
Lemondrop
A crisp, golden Pilsner brewed with Bohemian Pilsner malt and Carapils for a classic Czech malt flavour. Saaz, Lemondrop, and Saphir hops bring floral spice, citrus zest, and subtle fruit notes.
Little Monster from the Id
Ripe stone fruit, tropical hop notes, and a touch of citrus dance over a soft malt body, taming the Id’s wild side. Fermented with Verdant yeast, it finishes dry, fruity, and is perfect to be enjoyed with friends or paired with food.
Artisanal Treats Chosen with Care
Our beer is at the heart of everything we do at Tun Brewing Co., so naturally, our next challenge was to curate a selection of foods that enhance the tasting experience. Each product chosen for the hamper brings flavour, texture, and character designed to complement whichever beer of ours you are pouring. Think of it as a miniature tasting journey, where every sip has a bite to accompany it.
Junk Food Crisps – Sustainably Delicious
We love these crisps not only because they’re outrageously tasty, but because they embody the values we care about. Junk Food crisps are made from wonky veg and residual crops, transforming what might otherwise be wasted into something extraordinary. Their organic, vacuum-fried process gives a lighter, cleaner crunch and preserves natural flavour – perfect alongside a cold beer and good conversation.
These crisps are vegan and gluten-free, making them a welcome snack for everyone.
Serious Pig Snacking Cheese – For the Cheese Lovers
For those opting for the vegetarian version of the hamper, we’ve included Serious Pig’s legendary snacking cheese: an intense, savoury treat made from 100% pure Italian cheese. Each wheel is crafted from 400 litres of fresh milk, aged, crumbled, and baked to golden perfection. High in protein, low in carbs, and bursting with flavour, these little bites are an addictive companion to a crisp, hop-forward beer.
Love Corn Puffed Corn Snack – A Vegan Alternative
Inclusivity doesn’t mean compromise, so in the vegan version of the hamper, the snacking cheese is substituted with a flavourful puffed corn snack: Love Corn – light, crunchy, fully vegan, and every bit as satisfying for festive nibbling.
Handmade Vegan Christmas Cake – A Local Treasure
No Christmas hamper is complete without a festive centrepiece, and ours comes courtesy of a talented local bakery, The Plantisserie UK, based in Salford. This vegan Christmas cake is rich, moist, and packed with seasonal spices and fruit. While it is NGCI (No Gluten Containing Ingredients), it's produced in a bakery that handles gluten and therefore isn’t certified gluten-free, which is something we’re clear about for customers with coeliac disease. For everyone else, it’s a sumptuous, plant-based celebration of tradition, elevated with artisan care.
Westmoreland Farmhouse Chutney – A Taste of the Lakes
This traditional, dark, rich chutney from Westmoreland brings depth and tang, bursting with plums, dates, apricots, ginger, and slow-cooked onions. Spreadable, fruit-forward, and wonderfully aromatic, it’s the sort of condiment that makes cheese sing and savoury snacks sparkle. It’s vegan and gluten-free, and pairs as beautifully with festive leftovers as it does with the other goodies in the hamper.
“The Confession” by Puzzle Post – A Festive Escape-Room Experience
We wanted this hamper to be more than something you simply eat and drink. We wanted it to spark moments of laughter, collaboration, and that warm sense of togetherness. So inside every hamper is The Confession, an escape-room-style game from Puzzle Post. Designed to be played around the table at home, it transforms an evening of drinks and snacks into a shared adventure.
Solve clues, tackle puzzles and create new traditions with your holiday guests – this game helps to bring the festive spirit of connection to your celebration table.
Sustainable from the Inside Out
Beyond what’s inside, longevity and sustainability shaped the hamper’s presentation. Each one arrives in a beautiful reusable wicker basket, chosen not just because it makes a striking visual impression, but also because it will continue to be useful long after Christmas. Perfect as storage, a picnic companion, a decorative piece, or an annual Christmas hamper you refill yourself every year – this basket is designed to be kept, not discarded.
The Perfect Christmas Gift
Our hamper is ideal for anyone who loves craft beer, the foodie who loves discovering artisan treats, the family who enjoy a game night, or the friend whose dietary needs are often overlooked at Christmas. This hamper delivers festive joy that feels personal and thoughtful.
Our Christmas hamper is limited edition, and once they're gone, they're gone. Order yours now to avoid disappointment!
Cheers to a delicious Christmas, from all of us at Tun Brewing Co. 🎄🍻
