WILTSHIRE, England, Dec. 16 (UPI) -- A British brewery is taking a page out of Santa's book by delivering beer to local pubs using reindeer.

England's Box Steam Brewery employed the help of reindeer named Comet and Cupid to deliver beer to local Wiltshire pubs on the back of a sleigh.

"We're lowering our carbon hoofprint," read the caption of a photo of sleigh driver Tony Lockyear posted on the brewery's Facebook page..

The sleigh's first stop was Cross Guns pub, but the brewery's managing director says they'd be willing to travel even farther than that.

"We'd be delighted to export to the North Pole," he said. "And we can lend a helping hand if there happened to be any large-scale gift distribution businesses that region experiencing a seasonal rush."
