Last month we brought you the boozy brilliance that was the Whiskey Advent Calendar, but as many people pointed out, at just .33 ounces per day, there wasn’t nearly enough booze there to get you through your Mayan Doomsday.

And okay, so this DIY Beer Can version probably isn’t much better in terms of alcohol content, but at least it won’t cost you $240. Essentially 25 shipping tubes covered in Ski Free wrapping paper (win), this 10-step instructable by user mikeasaurus is the everyman’s way of ringing in Christmas, grown-up style.

Now, Advent started yesterday. Get a move on.
