Mad Elf beer from Harrisburg's Troeg's Brewery was recently ranked among the 50 Best Christmas Beers in the book "Christmas Beers: The Cheeriest, Tastiest and Most Unusual Holiday Brews" by Don Russell, beer columnist for the Philadelphia Daily News.
First reaction: It's sad that "beer columnist" may well be among the most stable jobs in the world of journalism these days.
Second reaction: I'm betting a lot of people will buy this for someone on their Christmas list.
Anyway, if you're a die-hard beer lover, you may want to pony up $75 for a ticket and make the trip to Philly on Sunday, Dec. 7 to meet Russell at a Winter Warmers Tasting at West Philadelphia's Armory (3205 Lancaster Ave).
In addition to tastings, he'll offer instruction on Christmas beers and feed you festive food. Learn more at www.joesixpack.net.
