Comparison of the different advent calendars

My little Hop offers a very nice comparative analysis according to your selection criteria such as price, originality and brewery calendars. Their analysis is the first result on Google for the query "Beer Advent Calendar" in France. It makes you wonder why they don't take the opportunity to offer their own version because Mon Petit Houblon is before a monthly subscription offer of 6 beers for around 26€.

All boxes is a comparator specializing in boxes of all kinds. Their article on beer advent calendars isn't entirely up to date and isn't very objective for the "best calendars" title given the results they offered, but it's still worth a look.

Brewnation is a blog specializing in beer and offers a fairly exhaustive list (even if we're not into it) while highlighting 4-5 favorites.

Happy Beer Time offers by far the most complete list of beer advent calendars available in France whether sent from Belgium or elsewhere. To tell the truth, there are so many that you get a little lost :) but hats off to the work done.
