Blind Tiger has Santa's Butt

Santasbutt_2 It is Christmas in July tomorrow night at The Blind Tiger.  They will be featuring beers from Ridgeway Brewery like Lump of Coal, Bad Elf, Very Bad Elf, Seriously Bad Elf, Warm Welcome and the ever popular Santa's Butt.  Lump of Coal is a Dark Holiday beer. Seriously Bad Elf is banned in Connecticut because it has eight tiny reindeer and an even tinier Santa on the label.  Apparently children, who are constantly scrutinizing the beer section, have been putting this on their X-mas lists.  Santa's Butt, which features the generous backside of Jolly St. Nick on its label, has also been the object of controversy in Connecticut, Maine and even New York. It refers to a line in a children's story, "And Santa sat on his great butt, drinking a hearty brew," where the butt is actually an English barrel used in brewing.  Of course it is.

Christmas in July @ The Blind Tiger, 281 Bleecker Street on Wednesday, July 18th at 4 pm.
