Win! Christmas grog with Stella Artois!

Frantically wrapping presents on Christmas Eve? Forget it. Stella Artois – the beer originally crafted for Christmas – has this year’s festivities all wrapped up; its seasonal special edition packs leave no need for giftwrap  and come complete with a greeting card on top.

Look out for the special 12-bottle Christmas pack; a brand new, limited-edition 750ml bottle available for sale for the first time this year; and a new 24-bottle case – all designed to help you get into the Christmas spirit.

Bringing the taste of the European summer to New Zealand is the Taste of Belgium gift pack featuring six different Belgian specialty beers: Stella Artois, Stella Artois Legere, Hoegaarden White, Leffe Blonde, Leffe Brun and Leffe Radieuse – and for another treat, the Hoegaarden White gift pack featuring four bottles of Hoegaarden and a hexagonal Hoegaarden Glass to enjoy drinking them from. 

Plus if you're right quick about it, there's an eight-track album of Christmasjazz favourites going for nothing at www.stellaartois.com/originalalbum.

WIN!

Feeling festive? For our over-18 readers, we have a stash of Stella swag up for grabs: five of the new 750ml bottles, and one each of the Belgium and Hoegaarden specialty packs. Just tell us what your most-hated Christmas carol is. Closes December 9, open to New Zealand only.

Silent night

Last Christmas by Wha, as it's a whiny love song & it sucks that you tried to give your heart to a jerkwad last year, but do you have to whine about it this year too? Apparently the birth of a savior means nothing to these people if they can't get laid. UGH

Last Christmas by Wham, as it's a whiny love song & it sucks that you tried to give your heart to a jerkwad last year, but do you have to whine about it this year too? Apparently the birth of a savior means nothing to these people if they can't get laid. UGH

Little Drummer Boy. Despise it. In primary school I was making dramatic big sound affects doing “pa rumpatum tum” during the xmas musical practice and was given final warning by teacher. Showed off and did it once more and got strapped in front of whole class and cried. Hate the berloody song now.

Jingle Bells..overplayed

There's not one - where's your Christmas spirit?….

That nasty self-indulgant song by Wham - 'Last Christmas' I gave you my heart but the very next day you gave it away… makes me want to slap him! George Michael is perfectly talented, why does he debase himself in this way??

Hate to say it but Silent Night - it's actually depressing!

I Love all Christmas songs but silent night would be one of my least favorite as its a little slow but I do like listening to it if I'm relaxing and just hear it softly in the back ground..lol

Santa got run over by a reindeer - it is awful!

Hmm, silent night coz I am a shocker at singing it!!

I can't stand Jingle Bell Rock

I cringe everytime I hear Deck The Halls

I've never liked “Silent Night” for some reason it really grates on me

I HATE Jingle Bells - it is SO repetitive

Its got to be - Fairytale of New York…
How depressing!! I give you a few lyrics(which have censored for sensive readers:
The boys of the NYPD choir
Were singing “Galway Bay”
And the bells were ringing out
For Christmas day

“You're a bum
You're a punk
You're an old xxx on junk
Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed
You scumbag, you maggot
You cheap lousy xxxx
Happy Christmas your xxx
I pray God it's our last”

All I want for Christmas is my Two Front teeth” gets on my nerves

Little Saint Nick by the Beach Boys.

Snoopy's Christmas

Most loathed Chrissy carol - Sting sings something which I cannot even remember the name of, but it's awful!

Last Christmas' by Wham gets a 'NO' from me…off goes the radio when that comes on the airwaves…

Wham! - Last christmas - ughhhh!!!:(
