Jingle. Jangle. Burp! Why does Santa Claus, with his fist in the air and a stein full of suds, look so self-satisfied? The brew he's quaffing is his own Santa's Private Reserve Ale from Rogue Ale. The dark-amber new brew has the taste thwack of a double-hop bomb. Samples of Santa's Private Reserve and other winter beers will pour at Winter Blues, Willows' monthly Hops & Grinds beer and pupu party, from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. Friday, $25. 952-9200.

MAGIC LOTION
After a months-long hiatus from Sephora shelves, the beauty chain's house moisturizer is back! So many moisturizers, so little true advertising. But this miracle whip lives up to billing, seeping into skin with no residual oiliness, leaving just a healthy shine and citrus scent. Works on manhide, too.
