If you have a yearning for barley wine, try Thomas Hardy, I forget the name of the brewery; but it shouldn't be too hard to find. I think the Christmas brew was Old Tom ... but not sure; last time I had it, I had a confrontation with an xmas tree in the pub, and was violently ejected from the premises.
