The Dogfish Head Brewery in Delaware makes beer brewed with real moon dust! Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer was originally created as part of a promotion by the department store Montgomery Ward in 1939- the song was written 10 years later. The Christmas tree worm of the Caribbean is so named because it resembles a decorated Christmas tree.

So-called moon beer is nothing but a marketing ploy. It’s as if everything you read in the net must be real otherwise it wouldn’t be there now would it?

As I recall, someone was putting out a Christmas LP and one side had time left, but not enough for a full-length carol -so Rudolph was put on as a filler – and became the hit!Shortly after, Patty Paige tried to cash in with “Boogie Woogie Santa Claus” – Anyone remember it? Actually, it sold millions!(Because Tennessee Waltz was on the flip side!)
