'dodgy offerings like the across solutions here?' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.

'welcomes drinking keg providing' is the wordplay.
'welcomes' becomes 'greets' (welcome can mean to greet a new arrival).
'drinking' means one lot of letters goes inside another (inserted letters are consumed or drunk).
'keg' becomes 'kg'.
'providing' becomes 'if' (eg 'providing it's sunny' means 'if it's sunny').
'kg'+'if'='kgif'
'greets' going around 'kgif' is 'GREEK GIFTS'.
