Harry Potter Advent Calendar - Day 15
Posted by CapnRex101,
We received a model from the Hog's Head Inn on day fourteen and I am expecting something else from there today. LEGO has never explored this setting before, so there is significant potential.
Let's see whether that potential is fulfilled...
I was hoping for something more distinctive, but this keg looks reasonable. The dark bluish grey bands are effective and I like the pearl gold tap too. On the other hand, the use of dark brown on yesterday's item should have been repeated with the keg today, simply to connect the pair visually.
Overall - A keg is fine, but LEGO could do much more with the Hog's Head Inn, such as recreating the portrait of Arianna Dumbledore from the film.

The most christmassy build of all: a (butter)beer keg
One, two, three
Beer, beer, beer
Tiddly butter beer
A long time ago, way back in history
When all there was to drink was nothing but cups of tea
Along came a man by the name of Aberforth
And he invented a wonderful drink, and he made it out of butter
He must have been an admiral, a sultan or a king
And to his praises we shall always sing
And look what he has done for us, he's filled us up with cheer
Lord bless Aberforth, the man who invented butterbeer, beer, beer
Tiddly butter beer
I'll have a Firewhisky, thanks.
I’m assuming this has to be filled with butterbeer because I can’t imagine them giving kids a keg of actual beer in an advent calendar. Then again, 79004…
Love it, great addition to the calendar
Bit by bit I’m building my pub for ‘wizards ‘ XD. ‘‘Tis the season to eat, drink, and be merry after all.....
Needs mugs.
Otherwise, it's like a weapons rack without guns.

What, Harry and Ron aren't capable of doing keg stands?
@StyleCounselor:
I can think of at least two Simpsons characters who would just lay down with their mouth below the tap.

BUUUUUUUURP!!
I agree that Ariana's portrait could have been included, but since we haven't gotten that or a Hog's Head sign, I expect they might be saving those for a full set of the pub in the future.

Can you just imagine the keg parties at Hogwarts?
