I visited my local brewery this afternoon (the Hogs Back Brewery) to pick up some beer for me and to get a variety pack to take with me for an ale fan up in Bangor. They do some very fine ales in Wales, indeed I've drunk a few of them, but I do have some loyalty towards my local brewery. Especially as they do some exceptionally fine beers.
However, the quote about being visited by a friendly yet anxious ghost is about a slightly different beer. This one is slightly stronger than your usualy beer and the brewers suggest that you should drink it "in small servings and with an air of aristocratic nonchalance. In exactly the same manner that you would enjoy a fine whisky, a Frank Zappa album or a visit from a friendly yet anxious ghost."
I very nearly used the name of the beer as my post title... after all it has the wonderfully off the wall name of Tactical Nuclear Penguin and at 32% it's... pretty strong.
