One of a range of Christmas beers brewed at Ridgeway Brewery in Oxfordshire. Give the high alc./vol. of this beer the label responsible warns, “Too much of this stuff may be bad for your Elf.”

To quote the label, “My goodness”, muttered Claus, recalling his visit to the Institute, “the restrictive outerwear, the padded room-even padded Christmas tree ornaments. Horrifying! Yet the little chap seems happier than he’s ever been” Claus took a thoughtful sip of a most warming red ale. “Perhaps sanity is over-rated…Ho,Ho,Ho!”
