Ho Ho Ho! Merry Christmas!Christmas is a time to eat, drink and be merry. A few beers always go down well. One man who enjoys a beer on Christmas is Father Christmas himself. With everyone leaving him a beer and some cake at the bottom of their Chimney each Christmas Eve he must have developed quite a taste for the stuff. Having said that he must taste so many he knows when he is being shortchanged. With that in mind Staffordshire Brewery in the UK has teamed up with Cottage Delight Fine Foods to produce a beer under the Had Enough Brewery label called Grumpy Santa. The intention is of course to make Santa less grumpy.
Grumpy Santa is a Golden Ale. Like a good English real ale it is best served cool, but not chilled to bring out the flavours. That works quite well if it is sitting by the fireplace all night. It has a nice smooth malty taste. Not too strong in flavour. Probably works better in a cold English winter than a grey Wellington summer. Not amazing but a perfectly festive golden ale.
