    Strange, I can get it right down the road here in the US. Until not long ago I had no idea what it was exactly, but I could buy it.

    I recently bought lingonberry stout, which was nice IMO.

    Do you live in the U.S. Pacific Northwest?

    Well, this year I am roasting a duck for Christmas lunch, I'll use the giblets and neck to make a nice sauce with some red wine, onions a few roast veg and some redcurrent jelly.

    It has been a long time since we used to pile round the crumblies on Christmas Day, and fill up on Turkey and all the trimmings, followed by dropping off during Mary Poppins or the queens chinwag!
    Opinions are like ar5eholes, everyone has one.

    Duck? Goose? Do the Germans eat goose at Christmas? What's wrong with people, doesn't anybody eat ham at Christmas?

    We typically have a ham at Thanksgiving and turkey at Christmas (Mrs. Schmenke even managed to learn to cook lanttulaatikko )
