Have you managed to get all of your Christmas shopping done yet?
While there will be some people who can proudly answer yes to that question, plenty of others aren’t so lucky.
Thankfully, for those who find themselves on the last minutes as always, one Greater Manchester craft beer and spirit store has got you covered this year – with delivery slots available in time for the big day, and even some great deals to make the most of too.
In case you missed it, online drinks delivery service Beerhunter – which is based in Bury, and is made up of a team of experts who pride themselves on bringing customers a wide range of beers to enjoy from the comfort of their own home – launched a new Christmas range of beer and spirit gifts last month.
The range features everything from beer advent calendars, to personalised spirit gifts by local and international favourites, and so much more.
“At Beerhunter, we make it our mission to stock the best beers and spirits from the UK and around the world creating bespoke gifts for those who enjoy a tipple of two at Christmas,” said Kieron Ainsworth – local Mancunian, and Beerhunter employee.
“As our motto goes, we want the UK to… Up Their Beer Game.”
And now, with Christmas being just over a week away, there’s only a few days left to grab some of those festive boozy gifts for the beer lovers in your life.

As well as the company’s new limited-edition ‘Boozy’ advent calendar – which is made up of a variety of gins, beers, cocktails, and other delights – Beerhunter also has a huge selection of unique and bespoke beer-filled gift sets to take your pick from.
But for local beer lovers though, one of the standout gift boxes has to be Manchester Breweries Craft Beer Mixed Case – which is filled with the top eight craft beers of Manchester, as well as a branded Beerhunter glass, so you can enjoy the unique taste that some of the finest local breweries have to offer.
There’s also the chance to add a festive touch to some of Beerhunter’s other popular products that aren’t part of the Christmas Gift range too, as all mixed cases and x12-packs come in one of the brilliant ‘Hoppy Christmas’ gift boxes for no extra cost.
This gift box is usually £2.95, but it’s currently free as part of Beerhunter’s last-minute offer.

To make each gift that extra little bit more special, there’s also the option to make the sets personalised with your choice of name or message.

Nostalgic ready-to-drink Breezer makes UK return after a decade
Daisy Jackson
An iconic ready-to-drink favourite has launched back into the UK – oh yes, Breezer is back.
First launched in the 1990s, Breezers – then pitched as an ‘alcopop’ – were a staple on dancefloors and at barbecues right across the UK.
And now Bacardi has decided to bring these delicious, fruity, easy-drinking bottles back to British shores.
There are three new flavours to try as Breezers return to your fridges – Zesty Orange, Zingy Lime, and Crisp Watermelon.
And Breezer launched back into Manchester last night with a suitably memorable party, turning a spot in the Northern Quarter into a corner shop.
The ‘local Cornerbop’ was stacked with your usual essentials, plus shelf after shelf of these colourful glass ready-to-drink bottles.
Inside the Breezer ‘Cornerbop’ corner shop in ManchesterBreezer is back, in three new flavours
The Breezer relaunch party saw Tarsza and Rennie Peters spinning nostalgic anthems with a modern twist at a pop-up party in a corner shop.
Steve Young, business unit director for Bacardi in the UK & Ireland, said: “We know there is a lot of love for Breezer in the UK, and we are confident a new generation of consumers will fall in love with the new Breezer.
“RTDs are booming, however, the Flavoured Alcoholic Beverages category could do with a bit more excitement. By bringing back Breezer we’re definitely putting the fruity taste into FAB.”
The iconic ready-to-drink classic is back – and better than ever.
Outdoor clothing brand Arc’teryx to open flagship store in Manchester this week
Daisy Jackson
Premium outdoor clothing brand Arc’teryx is opening its first brand store in Manchester this week – and its first UK shop outside of London.
In the brand new two-storey retail space, shoppers will find everything they need for their outdoor adventures, whether it’s hiking, climbing, or snow sports.
The new store will be packed with technical, high-performance outerwear and equipment, from footwear, packs and accessories to Arc’teryx harnesses you can try out in-store.
Everything is designed with a commitment to perform in even the most demanding of environments – and yes, that includes the brutal rain of the North West of England…
It’s a fitting location for Arc’teryx to open a milestone new store, just 25 miles from the Peak District and the gritstone climbs that helped to shape trad climbing in the UK.
Inside the 567 sq metre shop on New Cathedral Street, there’ll also be a ReBIRD™ Service Centre that will offer free gear repair, care, and washing services, ensuring your equipment stays in peak condition season after season.
That’s alongside a dedicated Community Area designed for events, movie nights, and gatherings, plus a local map that highlights the best spots for climbing, hiking and trail running around Manchester.
UK athletes and local ambassadors will be sharing their favourite places to visit, inspiring your next adventure.
Once inspiration strikes, you can pick up a local trail book in the community area, and buy these top-of-the-range bits of kit, choosing from Arc’teryx’s core assortment, including trail and climb gear, with snow gear to follow.
Local artists will be on hand to create inspirational artworks, starting in July with an installation from NOTS.
Sven Radtke, General Manager Arc’teryx EMEA, said: “Manchester is a vibrant urban hub that serves as a launchpad for outdoor enthusiasts. Its proximity to diverse natural landscapes makes it a gateway to the outdoors and a haven for hiking, climbing and other activities.
“Our goal is to help our core communities get out, doing what they love, equipped with the most high-performance gear to reach their goals.”
The Canadian brand is already distributing products through more than 2,400 locations worldwide, but this new Manchester opening is a key milestone for adventurers in the UK.
Arc’teryx opens on 6 New Cathedral Street on Thursday 10 July.
OPENING HOURS
Mon – Sat: 10:00 AM – 7:00 PM
Sun: 11:30 AM – 5:30 PM
To celebrate the opening, Arc’teryx is running a series of events and experiences:
10 July – Store opens
17 July – Grand Opening Party (RSVP opens on 11 July and will be linked on Instagram @arcteryxuk)
