The Joy of Low-Fills...
It's a benefit... when the bottling run is done, you get to see what didn't get filled (or labeled) properly. Some runs are better than others! This past week, the Elissa bottling run was very good... the low fills truly WERE low-fills. But there was a lot of Christmas Ale left over! I sorted through both to get the "best of the best" that were still there.
So, I took the initiative to fill a quick box with a combination: EIissa and Christmas Ale! Mix them 1/2 and 1/2 in a glass... It's called a "Sailing Santa" and it's pretty darn tasty! I am happy to have my own supply, ready to consume, in house... but rest assured, this recipe isn't a strategy on our part to sell twice as much beer during Christmas... OR IS IT? ;-)
