The perfect way to make your everyday brew highly giftable at Christmastime would be to give this special eight-pack of reindeer beer to your ale-loving friend. Unfortunately, this collection of seasonal beverages is just a concept, but it would be wonderful to see something like Jenny Utt's design on bottles by next year's holidays.
The American design student drew up a lovely set of illustrations featuring each of Santa's reindeer. These eight personified portraits of wool-sweater-wearing bucks each serve as separate labels, together completing a thirst-quenching fleet of the sleigh-pulling team.
A ninth amber beer accompanies the collection in a much greater volume, starring Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer on the front. The magical 'Reinbeer' pack would sell in great numbers for about a month every year, but it would be the perfect present for hard-to-shop-for guy who prizes his brews.
