Eddie Glick gives Three Floyds Brewing Co.’s Amon Amarth — Ragnarök 4 mugs. [...]
As expected from Dogfish Head, Immort Ale is a style all its own. Maple syrup, smoked barley, juniper, and vanilla are all added to the brew before it’s aged in oak barrels. Nice dark brown color here, even without much head. The aroma is very strong with cooked sugar, raisins, and a lot of alcohol. [...] Related posts:

“February 21 will usher in RAPTURE, an ale of opulent proportions flavored with heather tips. Unlike the various Rapture events predicted by pseudoscientists and alarmist evangelicals, the beer will be very real and frankly delicious, combining the fl… [...]
An Italian take on a classic Belgian style, the first thing you will notice about Lacu is its frothy, creamy, and unyielding head. This hazy golden ale’s aroma is full of lemon, orange, and yeast. Sweet grapes, grassy malt, and a mix of lemon and orange. Hops provide just a touch of bitterness. The 6.3% [...] Related posts:

Mahr’s Mastodon Widely Available
Mahr’s Mastodon. The beer is brewed for the Atlanta, Georgia based metal band Mastodon. The band was touring in Germany, prompting Stephan Michel of Mahr’s Brau to create this lager for the crew. For a beer that was once apparently limited to 200 bottles, it’s now widely available in the United States and Canada. Let’s be honest: You’re probably more likely to take illegal substances while you listen tothe heavy metal band Mastodon. But Mastodon and their crew had the opportunity to get shitfaced legally while they were playing the recent Sonisphere stop in Hockenheim, Germany on Saturday. Stephan … Read the rest [...] Read more →
